    Two nations in Latin America have declared health emergencies due to the Bird Flu crossing into mammals. I also saw that university teams in Japan, U.S. (Wisconsin), and Netherlands have been working with this virus using gain-of-function to strengthen the virus and get it to cross into ferrets. I guess we never learn until we go extinct form our own stupidity.

    They've been actively working on bringing that about for a long time now. 75-80 years ago, Dr. Mengele experimented on Jewish people for what he considered the advancement of science and medicine. Today, we have teams of doctors and scientists of his ilk experimenting on the whole world, and we pay them very well for it.

    I read a few weeks ago that a young girl in Ecuador(?) had been infected with "a bird flu," but the article did not state which specific virus.
