Coronavirus, Covid 19 Discussion and How It Has Affected Your Daily Life Chat Thread

The US has sometimes a dozen Bubonic plague/black plague cases a yr also.

That's not a very high number. Soon they'll be saying that about Coronavirus many years from now.

Here they find plague in the prairie dogs often.
Rabid skunks, coons, fox are common here too.
This year we have already had a rabid mountain lion attack a lady police officer.

Yeah, it had HUGE stimulus package for large and very profitable companies like airlines too. Various sources, including direct ones, have said this combination is why it's been voted down.

Went to TSC today cause we have a sick bunny. :T About 10 chicks left in the whole store - 4 leghorns, the rest assorted bantams. The run on chicks is real.

Mine had zero when I went yesterday. I couldn’t believe it.

Thankyou! You are just too sweet!

You sounded like you could use them!!

I don't have pet cows but I live on an acre surrounded by 12 acres and the neighbor's cows.

So everyone on disability are left out of it too because that barely get any money.

So why should people that dont work get something for working people who are out of work?

I've kept a closed flock for years and don't allow visitors who have poultry or have been on a property with chickens.
It is very unlikely Covid-19 will infect chickens.

Reply:

But incase it does mutate to a group 3 coronavirus, or another group 3 coronavirus spreads in chickens

What scientist said to give chickens powdered milk, extra heat and antibiotics??

I think if that was a real way to prevent this virus we would ALL be being told to do it.

Like is stated in a previous post, Patricia Wakenell exerted from Current Therapy in Avian Medicine and Surgery. This book is a reference tool for many vets, especially those focusing on birds. Patricia probably has more knowledge on poultry diseases than everyone on byc combined. You guys can continue to like the posts that target me as ill-informed, yet I dont see anyone posting any research that goes against my claims. And I have continued to provide the source of literature that provides treatment for coronavirus in poultry, has anyone here taken the time to look into it? Its alot easier to make an uninformed comment than an informed one...

Oh, I remember the first time I heard of hantavirus. Lived in NM at the time but was in Seattle at the time, DH was getting a bone marrow transplant for leukemia. That was in spring of '93. Same time David Koresh was dominating the news with his standoff in Waco. When we got home it turned my kitchen was infested with mice because my house-sitter couldn't bear to deal with them. It was a stressful time. But I survived that ... you know I've heard it said that what doesn't kill you makes you stronger. Look at us, all of us. We are all survivors of one kind or another. That's why we're here. This is something new, something different. But we've all adapted to something. We're strong. We're tough. We'll get through this, too.

I hope I'm hot at 76

Beauty is in the eye of the beholder. I'm betting that is how you will be visualized.

I think they are talking about the WORKING disabled. Those who don't work full time, and therefore don't qualify for this benefit.

I'd just like you to know that this was LITERALLY the sort of argument nazis used before they sent all their disabled people into concentration camps. They don't produce, why should we care for them? They're just a drain on society.

Also, every single person who doesn't work, make enough money, or CAN'T work hears you when you say this. They hear that their only value as a living breathing person is what capital they can produce. Not because they're alive, can suffer, can feel pain or joy or love things or be loved. No money means you're worthless.

Your post is ignorant and terrible. I hope you think twice before posting this sort of thing again.
