Both severe cases of #H5N1 - including the death in Louisiana, and the teenager in critical condition in Canada- were D1.1 genotype viruses. This has now been detected in dairy cattle, where most of the infections in humans have been occurring (previous dairy spillovers were w/ B3.13)

Sweden losing control. Europe next?
BREAKING: ”The Swedish state isn’t in control” The Swedish PM and goverment are holding a press conference about the recent massive increase in bombing attacks and fatal gang shootings. The government says it had inherited the problems and that the state is not in control at the moment. The government announces new law proposals, including the removal of Swedish citizenship from criminals and wiretapping of kids below the age of 15. More than 30 bombs have exploded in Sweden since the start of this year

The development of AI and biotechnology lowers the risk. The idea that we are at more risk than at the height of the cold war, where we were actually minutes from extinction three times, shows how silly and political this has become.
During an announcement earlier today, the Bulletin of the Atomic Scientists, set the “Doomsday Clock” to 89 second to midnight, the closest it has ever been to what they claim will be the destruction of humanity. Daniel Holz, the Chairman of the Bulletin’s Science and Security Board, cited the war in Ukraine, the ongoing proxy-war between Israel and Iran in the Middle East, countries continuing to grow their nuclear arsenals, governments not focusing policies on halting global warming, and the development of biotechnology and artificial intelligence, as the reason for today’s “Doomsday Clock” update.
