US "underprepared" for bird flu outbreak, epidemiologists warn
www.newsweek.com
"The U.S. is underprepared for bird flu because we have not learned our lessons from COVID," a public health policy expert said.

In short we’ve learned nothing, done nothing, and will be caught flat again. If you’re not ready, get ready, because no one is coming to save you.

    Oh fuck. Let’s hoard diapers, toilet papers, hand sanitizers, motor oil, and bleach flavored kool aid.

    Also, we need to call it a plandemic, lie through our teeth, declare trillions of dollars worth of handouts for handful of ultra wealthy and oppose any relief for people who are vulnerable. Oh and oppose any research on cure - scratch that - investigate anyone talking sense and trying to find cure and call them traitors and foreign agents. In fact we need to ban the face diapers (except those majestic pointy hoods, of course). And one fine day in a week or so declare pandemic is all over.

    Did we miss anything to get ready for H5N1?

      Don’t forget your Lysol syringes and your tremendously bright light.

      Yeah don’t forget the pox parties where people try and build natural immunity by making their sick kids cough at each other

      Win… by any means necessary.

      i.e., the polar opposite of peaceful coexistence and brotherhood - using violence to achieve an aim that they consider worthwhile. Didn’t more people die from the last pandemic than all wars combined? Sounds like an “opportunity” for political spin doctoring, according to some people, who would like for the wealthy to pay even less taxes than now moar power.
