Donald and HHS: A1 said fake news. This is Obama’s fault.

This is literally the worst possible time for it to happen. If you think global trade and prices are fucked right now then just you wait.

Also worth bookmarking the CDC summary... For as long as it's up. https://www.cdc.gov/bird-flu/situation-summary/index.html

Thankfully the US has a president who is deeply experienced in pandemic management and bringing society together in common cause so I should manage ok. 😭

[–] betterdeadthanreddit@lemmy.world 12 points 15 hours ago (1 children)

I'm sure he's busy issuing orders and preparing a response plan (to blame Joe Biden).

[–] j0ester@lemmy.world 9 points 14 hours ago

This time it’s Obama’s fault.

How to prepare for this shit again? I guess I can start by storing some masks, and a lot more food.

Any advice or thoughts? I can work from home fulltime, and grocery deliveries is possible.

My recommendation is to honestly just do what we did during covid. The government likely won't be enforcing anything this time so we're probably gonna be on our own. Also I recommend stocking up on things asap. We're already having supply chain issues and it's gonna get infinitely worse if or when this pops off.

[–] MoonlightFox@lemmy.world 24 points 17 hours ago (1 children)

I live in Norway, so the government will do everything in it's power to protect its citizens probably. Like it did during COVID.

Theres no supply chain issues here currently either. During COVID pretty much everything was available besides acceptably priced GPUs

Ah I'm American so I'm probably just gonna die lol

The best thing to prepare is to not be fearful and to not panic.

I suggest that everybody protest against factory farming and participate in boycotts. Call lawmakers and regulators to take direct action against these companies and their dangerous practices (and hold them responsible).

[–] boreengreen@lemm.ee 5 points 14 hours ago

If you pitch it as a wall around the farms, that the farms will pay for. You might have a shot.

I wasn't expecting my bingo card to fill up so fast.

A lot of innocent people would die, but there could also be some big Ws if you know who and crew all kicked the bucket by dying due to the virus or ODing on bleach and ivermectin early, rather than after four years. Thumbing our noses at mother nature by slashing health departments and the WHO contributions are just asking for trouble.

Can’t wait for the “that’s gay and fake” crowd to act like nothing is happening and if it is it’s Klaus Schwab’s fault.

How does this site charge $29/month for a subscription? That’s insane!
