‘They need to back off': Farm states push back on Biden’s bird flu response (www.politico.com)

The CDC is locked in a power struggle with key states and agriculture players as it tries to better track the virus and prevent another potential pandemic.

Many farmers don’t want federal health officials on their property. State agriculture officials worry the federal response is sidelining animal health experts at the Agriculture Department, and also that some potential federal interventions threaten to hinder state and local health officials rushing to respond to the outbreaks.

A big reason for the resistance: Farms don’t want to be identified publicly as potential hotspots for the virus, nor do they want to draw scrutiny to their workers, a significant proportion of whom are undocumented immigrants and fearful of government officials.

Oh yeah let's just have another pandemic. No biggie.

Enough of us have learned nothing from history, therefore we're all doomed to repeat it.

It's so fucking aggravating. People are back to going to work while sick. People aren't washing their hands or sanitizing. People are coughing and sneezing into their hands. I just don't get it. These fucks did nothing but whine about lockdowns and masks and vaccines, and they're acting like they can't wait to get right back to it.
