Sentient anecdotal evidence, presenting in good faith. Goal is to post citations and analysis, hoping the right intel can reach the right people at the right time to help. Focusing on SARS-CoV-2 here. Other issues are also huge and pressing, but there's value in concentrating info streams. Corrections most welcome. Greatly appreciate the zeroes.ca community's caremongering and signal-to-noise ratio. No tolerance for bad online actors of any stripe. Trying to survive in unceded territory. #nobots

Bowman and colleagues have been following the disease since its emergence on dairy farms, reporting early this year on detection of the virus in retail milk supplies – at that time, 36.3% of samples tested were positive for H5N1 particles
36%! and
once a cow's infected, they produce high-viral-titer milk for a week-plus
So that raw milk, hmm? Hmm. THey found:
Bottle-feeding calves high-viral-titer milk collected from infected cows led to minimal virus detection and inflammatory signs in the calves, suggesting transmission through feeding doesn't spread enough material to establish an infection
but "doesn't spread enough" will eventually take hold in some (likely mostly immune suppressed) people, and eventually one of the many mutations or recombinations (common in influenza) will be a viral genome with human-human fitness.
Tests for transmission among cows through milk machinery or through feeding of calves, and between birds and cattle through shared indoor air, didn't show results of disease spread
isn't very reassuring in the context of
viral particle inoculations into individual cow teats, where mammary glands are located.
Results showed that the smallest dose of 10 particles resulted in productive infection but fewer clinical signs compared to higher doses, as well as shedding of milk containing high concentrations of viral particles

"About a quarter of people worldwide say they believe that raw milk is healthier than pasteurized milk, that use of acetaminophen during pregnancy causes autism, and that vaccines are used for population control.
These are a few of the harmful health claims that were surveyed in the 5th annual Edelman Trust Barometer Special Report: Trust and Health."

The best #milk you can put in #coffee is #oatmilk. It's creamy, froths well, and if bought gluten-free, pretty much avoids all allergies.
Despite UK supreme court saying the slogan "Post Milk Generation" by #Oatly* can't be used because dairy farmers whined that not everyone likes cow lactose, they have literally got #OatMilk trending and everyone is reminded that there are alternatives for #milk.
Go out and try an oat milk, in our opinion it's better than bovine milk. There are lots of different diary-free milks available too. Oat is most popular but with different brands and formulas you might just find you never need to buy milks that cause animal suffering again.
Thanks to Dairy UK for this reminder.
*this isn't the best milk btw, Glebe Farm is our opinion
