In these cases do they cull the herds? Or is it just like a fuck it, the milk is pasteurized anyway sort of situation. BC if this is true milk prices should go through the roof very soon, $20/gallon type situation
I'm going insane for a variety of reasons - Trump, the GOP, the dems, and (legacy) media. The media should be informing the public so it knows the answers to vital questions like yours. One day outlets like MSNBC will suddenly say something like "91% of California's dairy herds have tested positive for H5N1..." and the public will be angry and yelling. "How the fuck did it suddenly get to 91%!" I made 91% up of course. But my logic is that if the entirety of major outlets (even AP, UPI too) are ignoring 7x% - they'll also ignore 8x%.
And then the media will be angry at the public as misdirection for its own failure to do the basics of its job. In fact - op-eds will probably bemoan the public's lack of understanding of this pandemic. Gee, why is that?
This is like powerlessly watching a super-duper-slomo train wreck.
