So far, every instance of fearmongering about the possibility of a lethal bird flu has turned out to be false. That’s why I wrote my New York Times best-selling book ‘The Great Bird Flu Hoax’, 15 years ago in 2009. Four years earlier, in 2005, then-President George Bush spent over $7 billion on preparations and warned that more than 2 million Americans could die.1
The reality is that no one in the US died from bird flu. Not one. Annual outbreaks of bird flu were also recorded and hyped between 2014 and 2017, again with no human victims.2
Fast-forward a couple of decades, and “global biosecurity” has become one of the primary tactics chosen to usher in a totalitarian One World Government. Covid-19 was just the warm-up. I’ve repeatedly stated that more outbreaks, be they real or imagined, are to be expected for that very reason. The only question, really, is which pathogen it will be.
Is Weaponised Bird Flu Next?
In the spring of 2022, Bill Gates warned that another pandemic will emerge and that this yet-to-come pandemic “will get attention this time.”3 Based on the news chatter emerging right now, a weaponised bird flu seems a possibility.
According to virologists speaking at a White House briefing, the bird flu (“H5N1”) has mutated to “spread more easily among mammals,” and an outbreak in the human population could be “100 times worse than covid,” killing up to half of those infected.4 As reported by MSN on April 3, 2024:5
Multiple cases of the infection in a variety of mammals, including cows, cats and, more recently, humans, are all raising the risk of the virus mutating to become more transmissible …
But others at the briefing said it was too early to panic because there were still too many unknowns about recent cases to warrant sounding the alarm. A White House representative said today it was tracking bird flu in the US.
A graphic by the Daily Mail purporting to illustrate how bird flu is “edging closer to human spillover” lists the following cases:6
- Mammals infected with bird flu since 2022 include fox, bobcat, striped skunk, racoon and coyote.
- In March 2024, the first case of bird flu in livestock was found in a goat in Stevens County, Minnesota.
- In March 2024, bird flu also sickened cow herds at two dairy farms in Kansas, three dairy farms in the Panhandle, Texas, and one in New Mexico. Unpasteurised milk samples from the sick cows also tested positive for the pathogen. According to the US Department of Agriculture’s Animal and Plant Health Inspection Service, bird flu has also been detected in dairy herds in Idaho7 and Michigan.8
According to reports,9 the bird flu strain transmitted between the cows is a new strain, “which signifies the virus could be adapting to mammalian (as opposed to avian) hosts,” MSN writes.10 Incidentally, one of the biggest changes to the H5N1 virus occurred in 2020, when the wild and domestic versions combined to create a new strain.11
- In April 2024, bird flu reportedly killed three cats in Texas.
By late December 2023, hundreds of elephant seals in Antarctica were also found to have perished from the infection12 and mink farms across Europe were decimated that same year.13 Well over half a million seabirds have also perished from the virus, according to some estimates.14
