You did a great job explaining and reporting what bird flu is. I hope that more people are concerned and more government agencies are planning to combat the possibility of this.

As a former federal Ag inspector whose since stopped consuming animal products I cannot underestimate the grave risk we pose humanity by paying for animal farming to continue. I worked in the 2014 pand emic in Ontario Canada. The fear was evident among all of us. The stories of massive culling that took place the birds dying in front of them all lead to that fear. This was just a few years off the heels of the swine flu in 2009. To me this is the biggest risk we face as a species and its a simple switch. In 2008 Dr. Gregor sounded the alarm (his video is on YT highly suggest you watch it)as many others. I’m not even including antibiotic resistance and the pathogens we kill (or try to kill) by cooking aka food poisoning. If we have pandemics happening in countries with strict biosecurity measures like Canada US etc.. what will happen in those who do not have that. The best thing we can do is move away from farming animals. We just witnessed an unprecedented global pandemic with all the measures that took place. If you’re reading this imagine this jumps from human to human we could see something we’ve never seen before. Please reconsider and move away from this, ask others to do the same for our sake and our futures.

Seen dead geese 2 weeks ago. Very spooky to see multiple dead Canadian Honkers. And to think they could spread the bird flu throughout the Pacific flyway. It just feels like something bad is brewing.
