@TRyanGregory Actually, we don’t know that. There is zero good evidence that pasteurization fully denatures avian flu in milkβ€”research shows it’s quite persistent in organic materials like egg white at high temps and suggests that with better tracking we may ID human infection via ingestion

@Unlikely_Buddha @DGBassani You do realize that the FDA guidance is limited at best, disingenuous definitely, and not remotely backed up by the science? Researchers have been actively criticizing the FDA on this for YEARS. There isn’t evidence that HTST or UHT pasteurization fully denatures avian flu.

@M8Void The FDA is very blatantly not saying if the virus currently present in the milk supply is alive or dead, which is a big 🚩 for us. We know that H5N1 transmits via ingestion for other species, we're assuming it's true for humans too, as do some researchers.

@jasmith_yorku @cupe3903comms @YUFAyorku This is how they always do it, which just makes it worse. I recall this vividly from the end of the 2008 and 2015 strikes I was part of.

@moniza_hossain I know folks have mentioned the TV adaptation but is also one of the great audiobooksβ€”Simon Prebble’s narration is genius, especially given how complex the source material. Even the footnotes work!

@ZJAyres Absolutely! Just like planning sewing and knitting projects, buying fabric and yarn, and actually sewing and knitting are three different hobbies. On a related note, I may have too many hobbies.

@AutisticCoach_ Weeks. We've solved the washer-to-dryer problem by getting a combo unit (no switching loads) but putting away is a whole other story. A recent special interest in styling and tracking outfits in @stylebookapp is helping, though, because I want to see everything hung up at once.
