An excellent break down of the current knowledge on the ever evolving “avian influenza” situation.

The advent of a holistic approach to ‘one health’ The ‘National One Health Mission’ is the result of recognition that only a coordinated approach will ensure a better response to disease outbreaks The interdependence between humans, animals and the environment has been made increasingly evident with the emergence of pandemics such as COVID-19. It is not just humans who are affected by pandemics but also livestock — an example being the outbreak of lumpy skin disease that has spread across countries. The recent decision on the ‘National One Health Mission’ by the cabinet marks a milestone.

After warning us for months that 2024 could see another deadly pandemic, the medical establishment and governmental health organizations are sounding the alarm bells on bird flu. Not only are they drawing comparisons to COVID-19, they are in fact claiming that bird flu has the potential to be 100 TIMES MORE DEADLY! Now Dr. Peter McCullough has weighed in: “Fear Mongering, Food Supply Threat, Virus with a Deadly Past, BARDA Self-Amplifying mRNA Vaccines–A Perfect Storm is Brewing. Bill Gates and the World Economic Forum (WEF) believe we should reduce our reliance on animal food products as part of their globalist views. Thus, a food scare in Westernized countries with market recalls and destruction of poultry and meat would further dystopian goals for the Davos club]. H5N1 has a historical fatality rate of 52.16% in humans, and fear alone could drive considerable anxiety in large populations not only about exposure through food, but pets, and other humans. “It’s difficult to determine if H5N1 is the next ‘Disease X’ at the moment. It’s possible due to the abundance of GOF research and biotech interests, ready-made vaccines, and powerful drivers of mass panic in the wings. If more cases occur in clusters or bona fide outbreaks with human-to-human transmission, we could be well on our way to a 2024 avian influenza pandemic crisis.“ https://lnkd.in/gBFJesa9

H5N1 bird flu threatens a future pandemic as it has spread from birds to diary cows to humans in the US. In this KevinMD Podcast episode I speak about the importance of including nutrition in public health policies to reduce the risk o future pandemics and zoonotic diseases. https://lnkd.in/eDAjwRyV

A recent NPR article underscores the importance of remaining vigilant about avian flu outbreaks on dairy farms. Although the few American farmers infected with Avian flu had only mild symptoms, experts are concerned about the current lack of test availability and capacity of US clinical laboratories to identify avian flu. This gap impedes the ability to respond swiftly to a potential human outbreak. According to a June 10 memo, the CDC has recognized the need for clinical laboratories and has urged the industry to develop tests for the H5 strain of avian flu virus, which is currently circulating among dairy cattle. Consequently, the CDC has given several companies licenses for their tests, which are currently under FDA review. Additionally, clinical laboratories have begun to develop their own tests. Staying informed and proactive is crucial to protecting public health! https://hubs.ly/Q02DL7WH0

In this print and radio interview I discuss aspects of avian influenza in cows, pasteurization, and how it’s important to get it right with this strain if we’re to have a chance against a less forgiving version https://lnkd.in/gsEcDt3W

Authorities identified a case of avian flu in the United States, while J&J unveiled results from a multiple myeloma trial.

Are we eating our way to the next pandemic? 🦠😷 It's no secret that intensive farming practices, such as factory farming, are a breeding ground for zoonotic diseases. These farms are fueled by our demand for more meat, dairy, and eggs. Aside from zoonotic diseases, eliminating these foods could protect your personal health if H5N1 does develop into a pandemic. During the COVID-19 pandemic, research found that plant-based diets were associated with a lower risk of COVID-19 infection and disease severity. 💻 Read more in my latest op-ed, published on KevinMD: https://lnkd.in/e3sFxwkt
