I notice that mice, ferrets, monkeys, pigs and humans are not birds. Why hasn't the bloody thing been tested on birds? If the disease comes with mortality rate of 20-90% in birds, it should become pretty obvious if the vaccine is efficacious. Or are birds' immune systems so different from mammals' that this does not make sense? But then, what is the danger of the disease to mammals?

Of course it's curious, isn't it?

Also, what's the big deal about 20 to 90% mortality rates? Do these unfortunate birds die of the virus or with them?

What kind of 'science' is this?

They get killed (to prevent future suffering) after becoming "a case" after one of those PCR tests!

So the birds are culled before they could get infected? That solves the entire problem of figuring out if they died (?) of or with the virus, let alone if the virus would be transmissible to mammals, such as mice, ferrets, monkeys, etc.

Fact: culling has a close to 100% mortality rate :)

I can't remember where I read it but it was a farmer who said it. When they, Ministery of Ag come to inspect and test hens in barns, if they get one positive test, even unsymptomatic, they gas them all then burn them. Same with foot and mouth years back, they ordered perfectly healthy animals to be culled. With 000's of birds, they won't test each one individually or to see if any have immunity, not that I believe in viruses anymore, learning how they faked others to cover for toxins, etc.

That's actually the case.

It's also why I'm building my chicken coop to have a roofed outdoor area to ensure, if birds are disallowed from 'being outdoors', I shall be able to have them 'outside but under a roof'.

I used to be troubled by the possibility of the bird flu. In theory, that would make me a good target for this vaccine campaign.

But absolutely not. Hard pass from me.

And now that I have seen in the flesh how brutally they manipulate people with fear, I question how deadly the bird flu even is. Perhaps just as with the 1918 epidemic, the treatment causes part of the problems.

It‘s a business, feeding on fear and ignorance. Two powerful enemies. It will be a long walk out of this. We must persevere.

Sounds like a great way to start a pandemic

I'm just asking: have any vaccines been tested for how they may interact in the body?

I'm betting the answer is "No".

Then again, we used Hormoslyr (swedish name for Agent Orange) to defoliate the entire railroad network of Sweden on a yearly basis for decades, as well as spraying deforested areas before replanting, while unmasked workers were still in the area.

It's not like human lives have ever mattered to capitalists.

I'm unsure if this is 'capitalist', to tell you the truth.

I'm also quite certain that none of these pharmaceuticals/biologicals are tested for their interactions with 'other' pharma products, such as, e.g., the Covid shots, meds, etc.

Just throwing it in there, since it's rather tiresome (not here, but you know what I mean) to see the label "leftist" used about everything the same way the woke use "fascist" or "racist".

That, and that companies, corporations, businesses have always opposed such things as consumer information, environmental concerns, and paying for cleaning up their own messes. Capitalist in short don't want market economy - they want a captured market where the state acts as their enforcer.

Covid vaccines are just about the most obvious example of this. EVs is another one. Eco-whatever.

Capitalists, business and shareowners or whatever you want to call them have been quite clever in that they have succeeded in shifting the focus away from environmental degradation (which they are the absolutely worst offenders of) to the abstract concept of “climate impact”. The climate scam is just another way for them to externalize the cost of their environmental degradation while reaping the profits also of this new scam. Paradoxically, you can now “save” the climate by degrading the environment, wind farms being a prime example of such lunacy - destroy ancient forests to put up machinery. To save “the climate” obviously.
