FDA Gears Up for Potential Bird Flu Pandemic

FDA Commissioner Dr. Robert Califf has announced preparations for a possible bird flu pandemic with potentially high mortality rates.

Dr. Califf speaking to a Senate Committee:

"We need to continue to prepare for the possibility that it might jump to humans."

Although only one human case has been confirmed, the FDA plans extensive measures to combat a potential outbreak, including tests, antiviral drugs, and vaccines.

Dr. Califf emphasized the proactive stance of the FDA, "We’re in an enviable position compared to any time in the history of the world," highlighting the readiness to quickly produce vaccines and antivirals if necessary.

This comes as the virus shows increasing potential for human transmission, underscored by recent genetic mutations and warnings from health officials about its pandemic potential.

A rough translation is "We need more money. Lots of it. Oh, and greater powers and authority."

He and others are setting the stage for what will happen after (they oh so sincerely hope and pray) Biden wins. You can just imagine the salivation that goes on when they give thought to that.

They are crying "wolf!" again and are going to find that many people are NOT going to run and do what they wish (or order).

And then there will be people, like one I know who is still wearing a mask, who WILL do what they wish. (spit)

None of this is for our health and well-being. It's simply for draining our money and our country's money - as much of it as they can before everyone is belly-up broke.

I will continue taking precautions that WORK, such as practicing hand hygiene.

I don't doubt that there are some nasty bugs out there with all of the fricking illegals that Biden has allowed to invade our country, but I have an immune system. They can go pound sand with their lock downs, mandatory masks, and vaccines.

Oh, and it took awhile, but all of the stupid arrows in the store aisles are gone (Remember those?). If I see them again -- and I am able to do so -- that store will lose my business.

As for work, if they start trying to mandate vaccines and manage to make it stick: I will retire on the spot. No two week notice. F--- you, I quit. Hey, the 20-somethings do it all the time.

I really have had enough.

I was sitting in a heart clinic yesterday talking to a small group of guys also waiting. After the initial hesitation to “talk about it”, every one of us had our heart issues after a Covid vax. And a couple of the guys knew others in the situation. Common consensus, a hard NO to ANY so-called government approved vaccine. As in FU FDA Commissioner Dr Robert Califf. FU.

This is no hit on you, Helen, but I wouldn't trust any numbers out of any g o v. They misuse and create and bend numbers to serve their best interests. In this case, if they want to get people scared enough to line up for another vaxx, they will create the numbers to do so. I don't trust any g o v any further than I could throw them. I'll take all the precautions that I can, but I will NOT bend to their vaxx edicts.

And they really don’t have an idea if was more widespread and people had fewer symptoms that they passed off as a cold. The mortality rate is in question because of it imo.

This is probably the thing they tout for not letting Biden, aka our sitting vegetable, debate or be seen in public. Buckle up! The Dems are even more desperate now.

I don't disagree with you at all. I maintain that truth and accuracy are irrelevant in public policy formulation.

It's too early to speculate accurately what public policy will be enacted for an H5N1 pandemic. It's too early to decide what you will or will not comply with.

The CFR for H5N1 without human to human transmission is higher than for these diseases.

I'm not saying it's true. I'm saying this is the metric you will likely be dealing with.
