Avian Flu: Contagious

H5 and H7 have a 60% and 40% fatality rate . COVID is bad enough but with the COVID idiots we have such a flu outbreak with one of these strains would be terrifying.

We would see a real deadly pandemic

Viruses are not alive.

Yup, they need a host to survive.

[@JadedHunter]

@@MarinelliBrosPodcast big difference huh. A virus is basically a chemical reaction to toxins in the body. Not a nasty entity. I hope you are having an excellent day
