Apparently we only realized that this outbreak was occurring after it'd been spreading for about 5 months or so.
It's also been jumping across multiple mammal species. No confirmed human-to-human transmission yet, but...
Except only idiots drink nonpasteurized milk so it won't spread to the general population. Or we already would have had a pandemic.
Using our standard protocols works, no need to fear.
Oh good - there's plenty of those lunatics around where I live.
So about 40% of the population in the US?
Where are you getting 40% of the population not only drinks but has easy access to nonpasteurized milk? We get stuff from local farms occasionally and all we can get is non homogenized, it's most definitely still pasteurized. And even then its still way way better than the store bought stuff.
I mean 40% are idiots. Just start a hoax about unpasteurized milk being free from government chemicals and you’ll see.
That's not how that works. It's illegal to sell unpasteurized milk, the only way to get it is to either know someone willing to risk it or to have your own cows, goats, etc.
Most of the population (including the redneck trumpers) have no clue where to get meat, dairy, produce that isn't from the grocery store or dollar general. I was in that group until I moved to what I call country'ish and met my wife who had been using csas for decades.
There are many states where it is legal to sell raw milk. You can not transport it across state lines, but if the farmer chooses to sell it in their own state, it's perfectly legal to do so.
True but you aren't going to find it on the store shelf and the average person isn't going to know where to buy it. You lot at completely missing my point. I'm not surprised because most people can't handle more than one thought at a time.
You’re missing the point. But that’s fine, it’s not really important.
I got the point. I was making my own and you seem to be missing it, you are also I bet in the large group of people who don't know how to buy food that isn't from a grocery store or local butcher.
Looks like you’re trying to attack someone. Go ahead, attribute more things to me. Might be cathartic for you.
Get over yourself. This isn't about you, I said nothing to attack you. I said that you probably didn't know how to find food that wasn't from the usual source which is not an insult, it's a statement of fact, I didn't know about csas until my wife taught me about them.
Would you consider it an insult if I I said you probably don't know much if anything about quantum mechanics? Would I be attacking you by saying that it's sunny out? If so, you might want to talk to someone.
I'm going to add you to my block list because I don't have time for people with a combo of comprehension issues and a persecution complex.
