Oh and we have the absolute best people at the helm of our country for any type of disease or pandemic outbreak.
Tough alpha males go to work when we're sick, because we're badass men!
/s
If anything like covid happens we are absolutely fucked.
I feel like "another" is not doing enough work here.
the country continues to grapple with AN ADDITIONAL bird flu strain ON TOP OF THE ONE WE'VE ALREDY GOT that has infected humans...
We've had one, yes. But what about second bird flu strain?
America will have to accept powdered egg in the foreseeable future.
Flax seed powder? Add hot water. Makes a nice eggy nutty mush.
More diseases on the rise nowadays.
Surprised that they even know this is going on.
THANKS TRUMP
I'm stealing this, thank you very much.
Please do! I don't remember where I stole it from!
BINGO! ✋
I wouldn’t say I’m on the side of the disease, but I do hope it becomes a much bigger problem. Anything to take the focus and money from whatever else Trump wants to do, which would surely be worse.
Well you shouldn't hope for such a thing: "The H7N9 bird flu virus has proved to have a high death rate for humans worldwide killing 616 people, or 39%, of the 1,568 people infected ..."
And how many are dying because of Elumps cuts and policies? It’s a choice between bad and worse.
