Guess we'll have to force anyone returning from the US to stay in quarantine.

No, they're different chickens and the virus has been spreading more through egg laying chickens. In part because they're in different locations.

I made a joke about this in a German community and yet here we are. Satire is dead, murdered by the imbeciles in the Trump administration.

stand with rfk. americans voted trump twice into office and shows now sign of stopping their brain rott. bird flu is best that can happen. last time the facist leader was in office we had corona globally - lets just hope for a very localised (to the USA) bird flu outbreak to help the imbeciles remember 2020.
