Canada just had the first case of human transmission in bird flu. Guess we'll get to grab some more data to show them.

There's been multiple cases of human transmission in LA....

Except it wasn't the first human transmission of bird flu. And sadly it won't be the last. And we've got anti-vaxxer Bobby Brain-worm as head of HHS now. H5N1 in humans has a lethality of 50% of those who contract it. Not too much less than Ebola, and a LOT easier to catch.
