They cancelled the vaccine manufacture program, they put antivaxxers and idiots in charge of public health, and it's currently spreading between farms airborne and they're insisting it is not. And in the cases where it jumps to humans, it kills them a lot of the time so far.

Good times. What's the worst that could happen.

Yeah, sounds like they're doing a lot! I bet this is really handled!

Fucking wonderful. Nothing like hurtling to extinction in every direction at once!

Stop eating fucking birds you fucking trash people. You're gonna kill us all!

And while you're at it, stop eating/exploiting any other sentient beings.
