Concerns are growing over the potential for a new pandemic as outbreaks of a highly pathogenic strain of avian flu, H5N1, are being reported globally in regions and animals previously unexposed to the virus. Experts, including Dr. Peter McCullough and Dr. Rick Bright, highlight the possibility of human-to-human transmission and the lack of data on H5N1's inactivation in milk, referring to it as a candidate for "Disease X". The virus has already jumped from mammals to humans in the U.S. for the first time, sparking fears of it evolving to spread among humans and being "100 times worse" than the Covid pandemic. Authorities in Australia warn of an increased risk of an outbreak, emphasizing the global animal pandemic situation. Scientists and health professionals are urging for vigilance, expanded testing, and research to understand the virus's pandemic potential better.

The testing approach to H5N1 in cattle (in the link) needs to change substantially. @USDA_APHIS may be doing what it can now with minimal resources, but testing needs to expand, get simpler, more available and transparent. https://t.co/7d5jyL7kKh 1/x

Avian influenza is being detected in more dairy herds. Scientists are paying close attention to how the virus is changing and what that means for its pandemic potential. https://t.co/zHZ1INxxYW
Australia is one of the last places on the planet free from high pathogenicity bird flu. But authorities warn there's an increased risk of an outbreak here as scientists say the world is in an animal pandemic.https://t.co/QJEv9Nv1Wu

Outbreaks of a highly pathogenic strain of avian flu are being reported in regions and in animals that have never encountered the viral disease before. Here's what to know: https://t.co/bQhUF1Us9S
Does pasteurization consistently kill bird flu in milk? We don't know yet. (Dr. Rick Bright is one of the nation's leading virologists. He says that we don't yet have data on #H5N1 inactivation in milk, and we need that data ASAP.) https://t.co/LFwVEuWxDy

THIS is interesting, and is very plausible. A repeat of how Mad Cow disease started. #H5N1, #BirdFlu. https://t.co/9SIFJWI0xy
