DJ-There were some "stories" of Human-to-Human (H2H) spread of H5N1 in (some parts of ) the US-but so far there is NO PROOF ! Still ;

Is U.S. still waiting on to release IRAT risk assessment?

multispecies mammalian
outbreaks; increasing
human zoonotic cases or
limited person to person
spread, linked to zoonotic
exposures. DJ, step 5 is larger human outbreaks or without animal links, step 6 is H2H spread...Before july 17 the UK did go for step 3-mammal-to-mammal spread... DJ-again...to avoid a tunnelvision only looking for H5N1-is there a CoViD link ?????? The way "science/experts" work may miss co-spread ! In high risk groups for H5N1-what is the problem of also doing a PCR-test for CoViD, asking about corona/CoViD infections/vaccinations ? < aria-expanded="false" aria-haspopup="menu" aria-label="More" role="" ="-175oi2r r-1777fci r-bt1l66 r-bztko3 r-lrvibr r-1loqt21 r-1ny4l3l" -testid="caret" ="" style="text-align: inherit; font-size: inherit; font-family: inherit; align-items: stretch; border-width: 0px; border-style: solid; border-color: black; display: flex; flex-basis: auto; flex-direction: column; flex-shrink: 0; list-style: none; margin: 0px; min-height: 20px; min-width: 0px; padding: 0px; : relative; : 0; overflow: ; justify-: center; cursor: pointer; outline-style: none; user-: none;"> In the not so distant future, many will claim: “But we didn’t know!”
Nah. They know.
They just don’t want to face it because it’s inconvenient.
People are choosing to ignore the sick and dead. They think it won’t happen to them.
What a ridiculous situation.
#CovidIsNotOver DJ, Denialism is a defense mechanism when confronted with a reality we can not handle...It is NOT the job of an average citizen to "know all there is to know" on infectious diseases-it is a government job ! But governments end up working for a "donor class" ignoring climate collapse, pandemics...producing a lot of empty words... < aria-expanded="false" aria-haspopup="menu" aria-label="More" role="" ="-175oi2r r-1777fci r-bt1l66 r-bztko3 r-lrvibr r-1loqt21 r-1ny4l3l" -testid="caret" ="" style="text-align: inherit; font-size: inherit; font-family: inherit; align-items: stretch; border-width: 0px; border-style: solid; border-color: black; display: flex; flex-basis: auto; flex-direction: column; flex-shrink: 0; list-style: none; margin: 0px; min-height: 20px; min-width: 0px; padding: 0px; : relative; : 0; overflow: ; justify-: center; cursor: pointer; outline-style: none; user-: none;"> US: Targeted H5 surveillance since March 24, 2024

Total people tested: 200+
Human cases: 13 total reported human cases in the United States
H5 Bird Flu: Current Situation - CDC
https://cdc.gov/bird-flu/situation-summary/index.html DJ, It is very likely there are some "mild H5N1 infections" in humans OUTSIDE the US...But very likely lots of countries may keep it out of the news-even if they would detect it..."Economy/profits' above public health... H5N1 is "only mild" ...untill it is not... Another excuse may be -it is already out of control in/via mammals-DJ-well than it is a governments job to get it under control ! Age of insanity !
