The recent bird flu has jumped to humans. Last I read, a few people have died from it.
The big news would be the first case of human to human spread, which has not occurred yet to our knowledge.
I'm seeing a lot of "could" and "might" and hearsay, but ya, unless it goes from human to human I am not that concerned... Just because there are so many other things more pressing to be concerned about, not that it's something that should be ignored or anything.
Can you show your work?
But let's not move the goalposts. I'm not saying there is nothing more pressing; I am saying that this is more pressing than the price of eggs. In fact, this is more important than having a domestic egg industry at all.
I just googled "bird flu transfer to humans"
