The Food and Drug Administration said Tuesday that fragments of the bird flu virus had been detected in some samples of pasteurized milk in the U.S. While the agency maintains that the milk is safe to drink, it notes that it is still waiting on the results of studies to confirm this.
The findings come less than a month after an outbreak of the H5N1 strain of bird flu was found, for the first time, in herds of dairy cows in several states. It has since been detected in herds in eight states. ⠀
The FDA is specifically testing whether pasteurization inactivates bird flu in cow milk. The findings will be available in the “next few days to weeks,” it said. ⠀
Still, the virus remains a cause of concern among health officials, given its particularly high mortality rate of around 50%. Bird flu doesn’t spread easily from person to person, but there’s worry that it could mutate as it spreads among cows to a version that spreads more easily among people. So far, there’s no evidence indicating that has happened, according to the CDC.
How do you find the vegan?
Find the one who is constantly critical, not just of tech bros? Lol. I think people have forgotten how to be critical of their actions and then judge those with a healthy dose of it. It’s up to the individual but comments like these divide more than help. Maybe read a book or try to not be as antagonistic online. Start with just 1 day!
Also, that’s like the ketchup on white bread of vegan jokes
And knock knock jokes are typically not that funny once you pass a certain age. Lol. I get that it’s a joke, and have (spoiler) even heard it before! It shows more about the person making the joke I think. Maybe reach a little higher, use those tippy toes!
Nah, not worth the time
Nah, I read plenty. Ain’t nobody what knows the cow like the butcher, and all that.
I hunt and grow as much of my food as possible, so I avoid factory farmed meat whenever possible.
I’m not perfect, but I am better than I used to be, so I’m cool with it
That is absolutely better than most. Factory farming is abhorrent and I grow lots of my food too! Hunting is definitely better but meat can still have an effect on health. Worth investigating but it’s a personal choice ultimately. But to each their own and within their own limit. Getting better is the goal, if more people took small steps there would be less suffering in the world. I get vegans can sometimes be angry but there are also some who recognize the efforts of individuals.
By looking for logically sound and ethical comments?
Gender-neutral dude, you have got to learn not to fall for these traps and not present yourself as the “angry vegan” in the world. Nobody likes a militant of anything and no one will listen to a snarky message.
I understand you’re passionate, and you are free to educate people on your beliefs if organically prompted in conversation, but you need to de-escalate the judgment and harshness to be taken seriously.
If you’re not a troll, ai, or a Russian bot, please take this comment with gentle kindness.
Their message was hardly “angry vegan” 🤣 i think some defensive overreacting is happening
To someone drinking milk comes off pretty aggressive.
You poor, poor soul, thinking this is aggressive.
We’re literally the only species to drink another species milk. And you think the person criticizing your action is aggressive? I get you have a victim complex but seriously, are you a baby cow? Because if that comes off as aggressive, you may need to take a break from the internet for a while.
And we’ve been doing it so long that it affected human evolution, allowing many of us to digest lactose into adulthood.
Then why is 80% of China lactose intolerant? It’s a very North America consumption habit because of North American industry. Milk doesn’t make strong bones, they’ve been lying to you.
I’m talking about the evolution of lactase persistence in humans among civilizations that were heavily dependent on pastoralism thousands, even tens of thousands of years ago. This has nothing to do with North America, because they did not have cows or evolve with cows. Lactase persistence is most pervasive among the people of Northern Europe, West Africa, Southwest Asia, and the Arabian Peninsula.
Exactly. People instantly lose half of their intellect when you confront them with their diet based on systematic abuse and murder. Pretty sad actually.
I’m not even angry, lol. If you think this is angry, you haven’t experienced anything. Gender-neutral dude? Because I’m vegan you assume I’m a “Gender-neutral dude”? Damn lol. If I’m not a troll or Russian bot? Lmao. You have a lot to learn about life and yourself. Good luck.
People who continue consuming animal products need to face the reality that they are a huge part of many different global problems - on top of the fact you’re complicit in the murder and systematic abuse of many millions of innocent animals every year.
Gender neutral dude is an inclusive to all greeting without assuming your gender.
You are getting really butthurt about the most lighthearted vegan joke ever.
I have respect for y’all, you’re doing what you think is right, and that is admirable.
However, it’s a joke, not a dick, you don’t have to take it so hard.
You’re the only one here getting butthurt.
If you say so
You sound like you make young women and girls uncomfortable and have for years.
Maybe, sucks for them I guess
Civility has its place. Expecting civility when faced with the lack of it? I get taking the high road but now you’re talking down to vegans? Lol. Must be nice up on your high horse with all the rules and regulations to abide by! Angry Vegan tropes need to stop and it’s not up to the vegans. Lol. It’s almost like it’s a silly, purposefully played up caricature. You don’t know better, people need to learn and it’s not always with kid gloves. Grow up and have a discussion. Lol
