Sitting with the fact that cattle industry has more power over whether humans in their employ get tested for #AvianFlu than #PublicHealth authorities do.

Hence #CDC preparing to launch wastewater dashboard for tracking spring and summer influenza surveillance...

To address absence of #BirdFlu testing. Taking a page out of the #CovidIsNotOver handbook of better too-late-to-be-actionable data than no data.

Statistics, as always, are structural.

WHO Overturns Dogma on Airborne Disease Spread. The CDC Might Not Act on It.

https://www.medpagetoday.com/infectiousdisease/infectioncontrol/109934?xid=nl_mpt_DHE_2024-05-05&eun=g2199647d0r

This important news even if most people that care already new it. It’s important on the face of it, it’s important the WHO is acknowledging it (again), AND it’s important that the CDC still won’t admit it.

Masks work. Indoor fresh-air ventilation works. The US Gov’t says, “Your job is to keep shopping…nothing to see here.”

People are DYING here.

If you're in the US and are disabled and care about COVID safety, the PBS Newshour would like to hear from you.

This is their survey: https://pbsnewshour.formstack.com/forms/covid_isolation

It doesn't look like much, and it's not linked on their website. I wish there was a better option to verify that it's not a scam, but here's the tweet from their official account: https://twitter.com/NewsHour/status/1778808320041550061
