H5N1 Avian Flu Virus Found in US Milk

Written by vtforeignpolicy.com on May 1, 2024. Posted in Current News

Particles of bird flu have been found in samples of consumer milk in the US, the FDA said last Tuesday, revealing the extent of an outbreak of the H5N1 strain of Highly Pathogenic Avian Influenza (HPAI)

The virus has previously been detected in raw milk, the agency wrote, adding that while “pasteurization is likely to inactivate the virus,” the process is not expected to fully remove the presence of viral particles.

Could Avian H5N1 Influenza be Disease X for the Bio-Pharmaceutical Complex?

This is what the American cardiologist Peter McCullough wondered himself, at the forefront of denouncing the dangers of Covid-19 vaccines and SARS-Cov-2 created in the laboratory, in an article from a few weeks ago which today becomes tragically relevant.

His brief but detailed investigation into the dangerous research conducted in recent decades thanks to funding from Bill Gates accredits our dossier “Avian Flu by Laboratory” in which we highlighted the role of Anthony Fauci, infamous coordinator of the Wuhan projects and bacteriological centers USA on chimeric coronaviruses resulting in SARS-Cov-2 artificially constructed with the enhancement of Gain of Function, a biological engineering technique stopped in the USA just after it was used to enhance the lethality of various strains of the H5N1 virus.

Meanwhile, the Ministry of Defence of the Russian Federation has continued to analyse the military and biological activities of the U.S. and its allies in Ukraine and elsewhere in the world.

These sentences were in a statement on briefing by Russian Chief of Nuclear, Chemical, and Biological Protection TroopsGeneral Lieutenant Igor Kirillov relaunched by Gospa News in our investigations on Avian Flu nightmare six months ago:

We noted earlier that during the special military operation, documentary evidence was obtained confirming that employees of the Biosphere Reserve in Askania Nova, Kherson region, were studying the migration routes of migratory birds and selecting and transferring biological material abroad.

Despite efforts by the Reserve’s staff to destroy the biomaterials by cutting off the power to the refrigeration units and destroying the cryopreservoir with liquid nitrogen, specialists from the 48th Central Research Institute of the Russian Ministry of Defence found traces of genetic material of highly pathogenic avian influenza, Newcastle disease virus, and avuloviruses even in the samples that had undergone decomposition.

Bird flu virus found in US retail milk

The FDA national survey further discovered traces of bird flu in “milk from affected animals, in the processing system, and on the shelves.”

“To date, we have seen nothing that would change our assessment that the commercial milk supply is safe,” the agency claimed, insisting that if the testing process finds “genetic material” from the virus, this “does not mean that the sample contains an intact, infectious pathogen.”

While the FDA insists there is no real concern about the safety of pasteurized dairy products, other agencies said produce from sick cows should not be on the shelves. “Only milk from healthy animals is authorized for distribution into interstate commerce for human consumption,” the National Milk Producers Federation wrote on its website.

Meanwhile, the US Department of Agriculture (USDA) has revealed that bird flu had been found in 33 herds of dairy cows in eight states as of Monday.

The media campaign for the decades-old problem of avian influenza H5N1 is perfectly timed about a month before the WHO’s ninth meeting of the Intergovernmental Negotiating Body (INB9).

In March, government negotiators discussed all articles from the draft agreement, including adequate financing for pandemic preparedness, equitable access to medical countermeasures needed during pandemics and health workforce strengthening» American Cardiologist Peter McCullough wrote on his substack Courageous Discourse.

Next month’s resumption of INB9 will be a critical milestone ahead of the Seventy-seventh World Health Assembly, starting 27 May 2024, at which Member States are scheduled to consider the proposed text of the world’s first pandemic agreement for adoption.

EU state reports ‘highly pathogenic’ bird flu outbreak

An outbreak of the highly contagious H5N1 avian influenza has been reported on a poultry farm in the northwestern part of Belgium, according to the World Organization for Animal Health (WOAH).

In a Monday statement quoted by Reuters, the Paris-based organization said that the outbreak was detected in the city of Diksmuide near France and that at least 95 birds died of the infection while the rest of the flock, consisting of 20,100 birds, had been culled.

Previously, German authorities also reported on Friday that 11,500 turkeys had to be slaughtered after an outbreak of the highly pathogenic virus was detected at a farm in the eastern state of Brandenburg.

In the Netherlands, outbreaks have been detected at a laying hen farm, prompting the culling of approximately 110,000 chickens, and at a petting zoo, where some 90 birds that posed a risk of spreading the virus were slaughtered.

Another outbreak was also reported by the French Ministry of Agriculture last week at a turkey farm in northwest France, prompting authorities to raise the national alert level for bird flu from ‘negligible’ to ‘moderate.’

In recent years, the H5N1 avian influenza has led to the culling of hundreds of millions of birds worldwide. In Europe, outbreaks typically occur in autumn and winter, and this season has also already seen cases detected on farms in Italy, Croatia, and Hungary, in addition to those previously mentioned.
