Politics is a serious and significant public health hazard in the USA. Given the current concerns over #H5N1 #cowflu in US Dairy herds. #pandemicpreparedness
This is absurd. Mask ban will endanger people’s health and lives
#NoNYMaskBan
#CowFlu (a.k.a. #BirdFlu) emerges in dairy cows. Why dangerous? Each dairy cow has close human-cow interaction EACH DAY where milkers are attached to teats. That's 365 days each year of human interaction w/ each cow the dairy herd. Contact w/beef cattle? Not so much. #IaPolitics
NEW—The cow flu virus that has spread through US dairy herds may have taken a "dangerous" step towards being able to infect humans through respiratory infections, scientists have warned.
Now detailed analysis by scientists at the University of Wisconsin-Madison shows ➡️viral samples taken from cows were able to attach to receptors found on cells in the human respiratory tract.
(In contrast, the version of H5N1 found in birds is unable to do that, suggesting the bovine virus has mutated). https://t.co/4HanWCINoJ
Step 3 of the public health misinformation #TobaccoPlaybook script: render everything utterly confusing.

@NoHealthNoFun @RealCheckMarker you mean 'the other flu'?
no. the udder flu.
which flu?
the other flu. the udder flu.
sounds like a perfect public health campaign!
all confusion and misdirection!
New H5N1 fear is chickens passing the virus to cows. It’s an opportunity for health officials to mandate destruction of cattle herds. #CowFlu
REPEAT PERFORMANCE: "Novel Flu"...😩🐮
Remember the Novel Coronavirus?
Sure you do. 👇🚨 #NewJersey #H5N1 #BirdFlu #H5 #InfluenzaA #CowFlu #AvianInfluenza

Besides KP.2 variant stealthily increasing in the Northeast USA...
Bird Flu H5N1 virus fragments found in Rockland County, NY milk supply.
CDC Director Mandy Cohen is "concerned"...

@julia_doubleday #cowflu is not "airborne" either, according to USDA& FDA, but farm workers are encouraged to wear masks now.
Also, cow flu is bird flu, but bird flu has wayyy too many restrictions so USDA did the dairy industry a solid to recoin the #h5n1 in cows as "cow flu",to get around that.
@drkristenkc Not a direct comparison, but milk pasteurization is 145F/62.7C for 30 min., or 161F/71.6C for 15 seconds, conditions developed to kill most bacteria (USDA,2012). Simple experiment — expect multiple preprints any day now (takes two days to titer live #influenza virus). #CowFlu
@drkristenkc #BirdFlu 🦠🐄 #CowFlu. Is the milk supply safe? Probably. We did a study on mask sterilization. We found heating at 75C, 30 min., inactivated live, infectious #influenza A/WSN virus 🦠. Viral RNA was still detectable by qRT-PCR after 75C, 60 min.

So, *preliminary* molecular clock analyses indicate that the time of the most recent common ancestor (TMRCA) of the US cattle flu clade was late December.
TMRCA of that clade and the closest relatives in birds, mid-December.
If single intro, likely between those rough dates.
Yet the @USDA @USDA_APHIS is refusing to share genomic / other data from outbreak spreading among hundreds/thousands of farm animals, across many states, in multiple mammal & bird species. They & @US_FDA have also failed to show that standard pasteurization will fully inactivate h5n1 influenza virus in milk from infected cows where virus replicates in the mammary cells.
With thousands of affected animals, human health, & commerce at stake, one would expect more transparency.
