Type A H5N1 influenza has been spreading through animals and some people in the United States. There have been 70 cases in that country since during the past year, according to the World Health Organization, though researchers and studies suggest that’s likely an undercount.
In Mexico, the girl was in serious condition in a hospital in Torreon in the neighboring state of Coahuila, the health ministry said in a statement Friday. It said she had initially been treated with an anti-flu medication.
It was not known how the girl contracted the virus. Investigators were testing wild birds in the vicinity of the girl’s home, the statement said.
On the bright side the MAGA people won’t take the vaccine once it’s created
What are the odds a non us country invents it this time and our government makes it illegal to import into the US. Or even if it is invented here, RFK will make sure nobody can get it
No one will get it for free* more likely than not at all
It wasn’t the US last time but ok. Neither of the two big MRNA vaccine producers were US.
Tell me you’re USanian without telling me.
Ah, I can see how my wording makes it sound like I was implying that. I actually work in healthcare and am acutely aware of the decline in the US pharmaceutical industries ability to innovate relative to other countries
That’s not a bright side for their neighbours.
Well it’s the only bright side so take it or leave it
Thank you for giving me hope for the future.
It’s too dangerous. The world has to take this seriously.
