Somehow I doubt that we’ll do nation blaming, like “China virus”, as we did with COVID. This will just be “well nothing could have prevented it”.
Also this vegan wants to remind you all that BOTH pandemics came from commercial animal consumption.
If this spreads I will definitely be calling it “Yankee plague”
Burgerland plague.
But that’s Covid!
Soybeans never spread a disease that killes millions…
deregulation machine go brrr.
I’m watching you, Poison Ivy
got nothing on sugarcane’s kill count
Dont look inside my greenhouse
they’re going to blame undocumented farmworkers
The “Spanish Flu” also likely originated form the US but wasn’t named accordingly (Due to secrecy during WWI).
If we called it the Califlu do you think it would get red states to start masking again?
again? they didn’t even mask for the “chinaflu”
at this point I don’t think you could even get blue states to mask up if you could prove the virus originated from trump personally.

After everything that’s happened I would be genuinely surprised if even half this country bothered to take precautions for this one.
A small part of me wants this to happen to make people mask again. But really that ain’t gonna happen, and this is just gonna make things even worse.
Trump handed Biden a flu, it’s only fair Biden hand Trump a flu too. All things balance

Ah cool, if only I could make infectious disease into a hobby. I love the four horseman and civilizational collapse.
On the bright side
does the proliferation indicate we’re not dealing with the 60% mortalitiy kind of H5, since assumedly we’d be seeing scores of bodies in the streets, or do we not know yet
This is likely from cows, not human to human transmission.
Livestock manure isn’t supposed to enter municipal wastewater. It typically gets composted or tossed in an anaerobic digester.Never mind, according to the CDC the source could be milk from infected animals.
Some talking heads on the news are saying it’s “like the flu”. I’m not saying they’re wrong, but we went through this already on 2020. I’m just suspicious until we know more.
Is this another knock on effect of climate change?
Maybe on the wild birds’ side, but capitalists are turning it into a full on pandemic through factory farming practices while the US government politely asks them to act responsibly.
Call of C’flulu
I’d say yes and no, not necessarily due to changing temperatures but due to huge quantities of bird livestock (in absolute cosmic horror conditions) but I guess loss of habitat and a polluted environment doesn’t help much, animal industry is for sure the biggest drive of viral/bacterial diseases. Which is kinda poetically fitting tbh, considering the nightmare modern day factory farming is.
It’s mostly an effect of meat consumption.
Can it be that California makes more tests?
You do realize how much worse it would be right? Like if that is the case and this diagram is underselling it we are super super fucked.
This is sewage tests
