Russia said it found the world’s first cases of H5N8 avian influenza in humans though the virus isn’t yet spreading between people.

Authorities have sent information on the seven cases detected in workers at a poultry farm in southern Russia to the World Health Organization, Anna Popova, the country’s public-health chief, said in televised comments on Saturday.

“It is not transmitted from person to person. But only time will tell how soon future mutations will allow it to overcome this barrier,” she said. The discovery of this strain now “gives us all, the whole world, time to prepare for possible mutations and the possibility to react in a timely way and develop test systems and vaccines.”

Swine flu, bat flu (Covid), bird flu... waiting for mad cow disease to start infecting humans too :bear:

When humans catch mad cow disease, it's called Creutzfeldt–Jakob disease. In the 90s, 177 people died in the UK from it and apparently enough people caught it that they still found traces in blood donations as late as 2015 :bear:

Whimsical bitch
