For the first time in decades, US officials confirmed new cases of the New World screwworm: a flesh-eating parasite that eats living tissue from the inside out and can cross over to humans. As the government prepares emergency declarations and a $750 million fly factory in Texas, McCullough Foundation epidemiologist Nicolas Hulscher reveals the not-so-surprising, over-the-counter medication that he says “provided more than 97% protection against screwworm infestations in wounds under real-world conditions.” But because it's so cheap and easily available, you will likely never hear about it in the headlines. In this special episode hosted by Dr. Kelly Victory, Nic Hulscher discusses the New World screwworm, ebola, and breaks down the meteoric rise of alpha-gal syndrome (meat allergies) and its connections to bio-engineered ticks. Nicolas Hulscher is an epidemiologist and administrator at the McCullough Foundation. He earned a Master of Public Health degree with a specialization in epidemiology at Michigan School of Public Health. He has contributed to the publication of more than 25 scientific studies, advancing understanding of COVID-19 vaccine injuries, childhood vaccine injuries, cancer treatments, SARS-CoV-2, and H5N1 avian influenza.

Well howdy there, daylight burners. This is the Friggin' Farm & Ranch Report for Wednesday, June 10. All the numbers are from yesterday's close, because I'm not a breaking‑news guy – I want time to see what the hell we've actually got going on. We start on the board and in the barn. Live and feeder cattle were up – August live at 252.50, October at 248.25, feeders up 2–3 bucks across the board – while lean hogs kept bleeding lower around 97.20. Cash cattle are still stout with the 5‑area live in the mid‑250s and dressed over 404, and the sale barns say light calves are gold: 550‑pounders ringing up in the mid‑400s to high‑400s while 8–9 weights are stuck down in the low‑ to mid‑300s. Weight is discounting, lightness is paying, and the better‑managed, tighter pens are still dragging top dollar. On the grain side, July corn's around 4.20¾, wheat trying to bounce off multi‑year lows, and beans sagging sideways while everyone stares at South America and U.S. weather. Corn is cheap by recent history, but USDA's balance sheet still screams ‘ample supplies.' Then we lay that next to energy: Brent in the mid‑90s and national diesel still north of five bucks – AAA and EIA have diesel just over that 5‑dollar mark even after a little pullback. Feed looks manageable on paper, but every gallon of diesel and every pound of fertilizer is still trying to crawl up your back. Then we move to the war reel. A U.S. Army AH‑64 Apache went down near the Strait of Hormuz, off Oman. Both crew members were pulled out and are reported safe, but Trump says Iran shot it down with a Shahed drone and that the U.S. ‘must respond,' and CENTCOM already answered with strikes inside Iran. For the first time, we had a drone knock down a helicopter and another drone boat help drag the crew out of the water. This isn't just war porn – it's the risk premium baked into every barrel that has to squeeze through that chokepoint, and that's why your diesel and fertilizer don't come back to earth as fast as the chart says they should. Back home, we hit the New World screwworm update. USDA APHIS first confirmed a 3‑week‑old calf in Zavala County, then a second calf in Zavala, a calf in La Salle County, and a dog out in the Andrews County oil patch – plus another La Salle calf for five confirmed U.S. cases so far. We talk about the 20‑kilometer infested zones, road checkpoints, paperwork on livestock movements, and sterile‑fly drops along the border – and how all of that looks if you're in South Texas, New Mexico, or buying cattle out of those areas. The bug is a biology problem; the rules they'll write on top of it are an economic problem. I wrap it up with why packers are still chasing cattle in a short‑cattle, long‑capacity world, how BLM's new grazing rule and the death of the Public Lands Rule change (and don't change) public‑land grazing reality, what EPA's right‑to‑repair guidance actually does for your ability to work on your own iron, and a quick hit on H5N1 in dairy cattle and what that might mean for cull cows going through dairy‑heavy plants. If you make your living on a horse, in a tractor, or with a wrench in your hand – or you just care what screwworms, packers, public land, and a downed Apache mean for your fuel bill and sale‑barn check – this one's for you.

The planned closure of the Lacombe Research and Development Centre places Canadian research programing at risk.In January, as part of a broader federal mandate to reduce the size of the public service, Agriculture and Agri-Food Canada announced the imminent closure of several research facilities.Dr. Stuart Smyth, a Professor in the Department of Agricultural and Resource Economics at the University of Saskatchewan says limiting federal government swine research capability to a single location puts swine research at risk and jeopardizes the global competitiveness of Canadian pork.ANDA panel of producers, veterinarians and researchers is now reviewing 42 submissions received in response to a January call for research proposals to enhance the response to H5N1 Influenza. SHIC Associate Director Dr. Lisa Becton says H5N1 is an Influenza A virus normally associated with avian species but, since 2024, that virus has been found in dairy cattle, sheep and goats and in October 2024 the infection was identified in backyard swine.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

A pesar de que la Antártida no pertenece a ninguna nación y que, según el Tratado de Washington de 1959, debe ser dedicado exclusivamente a actividades pacíficas y científicas, el turismo en el continente helado se ha triplicado en la última década. Entrevista con el científico y climatólogo Raúl Cordero que llama a poner coto a un turismo que amenaza con convertir a la Antártida en un balneario para ricos.   Admirar paisajes helados que serán cada vez más excepcionales con el calentamiento global, avistar pingüinos y cachalotes y experimentar los atardeceres polares son algunas de las experiencias únicas que atraen a cada vez más turistas en la Antártida. A pesar de que este continente al sur de nuestro planeta no pertenece a ninguna nación y que, según el Tratado internacional de Washington de 1959, debe ser dedicado exclusivamente a actividades pacíficas y científicas, se observa un boom del turismo en el continente helado. Y es que, además de los cruceros para admirar los icebergs, las agencias de viajes se proponen hacer kayak entre los icebergs, bucear o incluso tomarse una copa de champaña en la banquisa. El elevado costo de los viajes - entre 5.000 $ y 100.000 $ para los tours más lujosos- no impide el aumento sustancial del turismo en este continente. Durante la temporada 2024-2025, se registraron cerca de 118.162 visitas en la Antártida -principalmente estadounidenses -, una cifra que se ha triplicado en una década. Y de estos miles de turistas, cerca de 90.000 de ellos pisaron el continente blanco. Este boom del turismo antártico, sin embargo, ya tiene impactos en la nieve y pone en riesgo la tranquilidad y la salud de la fauna. En este contexto, varias voces piden poner coto al turismo en este continente que pertenece a todos y a nadie al mismo tiempo. Aunque en la última temporada, la Asociación de Turoperadores de la Antártida (IAATO) observa una disminución del 5% del número de turistas, el científico Raúl Cordero teme que la curva siga aumentando de forma exponencial si no se pone límites al turismo. Desde la Universidad de Groningen, en Holanda, el climatólogo monitorea la contaminación y la calidad del aire en la Antártida gracias a datos de una de las estaciones científicas ubicadas en este continente. “En la Antártida, de acuerdo, al texto del Tratado Antártico, es el continente de la paz y de la ciencia. Yo creo que tiene que mantenerse de esa manera y convertirlo en el continente de los ricos sería un error”, alerta Cordero, en entrevista telefónica con Radio Francia International. “Todos los que van a la Antártica como turistas son personas ricas, observa el climatólogo”. “Entonces, convertir en Antártica en un resort de lujo es, digamos, no va en el espíritu del Tratado Antártico. El turismo antártico tiene que ser racionalmente acotado para minimizar los impactos”, recomienda el Cordero, quien ha realizado cerca de 15 misiones de exploración en la Antártida. La huella de los combustibles fósiles En 2022, el científico demostró -junto con otros colegas- que el continente blanco ya no era tan virgen como se pensaba. En un estudio publicado en la revista Nature, él y sus colegas demostraron la presencia de carbono negro de origen humano en la Antártica. “Actividades humanas en general en Antártica, relacionadas con el turismo y la investigación, son muy intensivas en el uso de energía y utilizan mucho combustible fósil diésel, una fuente de carbono negro”, detalla Cordero. “El carbono negro es material particulado fino que está al depositarse sobre la nieve oscureciéndola, y acelerando su derretimiento”. Los científicos calcularon que cada turista en promedio es responsable de acelerar el derretimiento de hasta 200 toneladas de nieve. Una cifra que alcanza las mil toneladas para los científicos que visitan la Antártida. Los científicos per cápita contaminamos cada vez que vamos en la Antártica, porque nosotros nos quedamos mucho más tiempo que un turista, y además utilizamos a veces equipo y maquinaria pesada para diversas actividades científicas”, concede Cordero. “Esa es una de las razones por las que yo no he ido a la Antártica personalmente en años recientes, porque lo que nosotros hemos tratado de hacer en los últimos años, es mandar solo el número de científicos que realmente es necesario”, asegura. El riesgo de transmisión de enfermedades Por su lado, las empresas turísticas aseguran que tratan de minimizar sus emisiones de carbono con el uso de barcos híbridos. Interrogada por RFI, la Asociación de Turoperadores de la Antártida (IAATO) afirma tomarse “muy en serio” el riesgo potencial de transmisión de enfermedades a la fauna silvestre antártica. Sobre todo desde la epidemia de Covid y el brote global de influenza aviar. “Además de las normas de distancia mínima para garantizar que los pasajeros y la fauna silvestre no entren en contacto directo, las medidas de bioseguridad en la zona del Tratado Antártico incluyen procedimientos de desinfección obligatorios antes y después de cada desembarque, utilizando desinfectantes biodegradables de amplio espectro”, indica la IAATO. Los turistas que desembarcan en la Antártida deben limpiar a fondo su calzado, su ropa y su equipo para desinfectar y eliminar cualquier material orgánico para evitar traer agentes patógenos. La detección de una cepa del virus de la gripe aviar H5N1 -altamente letal- en aves y mamíferos antárticos en los últimos años ha despertado las alarmas de la comunidad científica. “Si el contacto entre humanos y animales es masivo, eso aumenta el riesgo de que haya también la posibilidad de que se traspase un virus entre la población animal y la población humana”, teme Raúl Cordero. Un tema polémico La protección de la Antártida será nuevamente un tema de discusión en la conferencia internacional del Tratado Antártico, que tiene lugar este año en Japón. La limitación del número de turistas - tema que aún no genera consensos - y la suerte del pingüino emperador, una especie amenazada que las ONG ambientales llaman a proteger mejor, serán unos de los asuntos en la mesa de los representantes de los países firmantes del tratado.

Avian influenza H5N1 is leaving a heavy impact around Antarctica. It is now on Heard Island with fears it will be on Macquarie Island and before too long arrive in Australia.

This week's stories: *Mud Playgrounds Double Kids' Bacterial Diversity and Spike Immune Genes 30% Finland swapped rubber playground surfaces for natural soil and mud across eight kindergartens — and after just one month, kids in dirt had twice the bacterial species diversity on their skin and a 30% increase in expression of ten immune-related genes. Dave breaks down why your immune system requires microbial exposure to calibrate properly, what the hygiene hypothesis actually means for adults, and the dead-simple weekly habit that primes your innate immunity the same way.

Dave explains why variety is a distinct biological signal, not a motivation trick, and why grinding more of the same thing is leaving longevity gains on the table.

Dave covers what the AI is actually reading in those photos, why your face is a more accurate biological ledger than most labs your doctor orders, and the free monthly habit that turns this into an early warning system.

A phase 3 clinical trial is underway to determine the effectiveness of an mRNA vaccine for H5N1, a strain of influenza that is currently of concern. The virus, which is commonly found in birds across the world and is rarely transmitted to humans. However, when it is transmitted, the disease is often fatal, and scientists fear that if the virus were to mutate, it could lead to rapid, widespread infection. Following the COVID-19 pandemic, governments around the world are keen to be better prepared for future threats. These latest efforts aim to develop an mRNA vaccine that could be rolled out on an unprecedented scale if the worst were to happen. John Tregoning, author of Infectious: Pathogens and How We Fight Them and Professor of Vaccine Immunology at Imperial College London, joins Tom to explain how these mRNA vaccines could revolutionise preparedness. In the lead-up to the 100th birthday of the world-famous broadcaster and behavioural ecologist Sir David Attenborough, Inside Science is shining a spotlight on a species of scientific importance that has been named after him. This week, Dr Frankie Dunn describes her discovery of a fossil that we now know to be the earliest animal predator. And Lizzy Gibney, senior reporter at Nature, shares the latest science news that may have slipped under the radar but is well worth your attention.

Preparing to Survive in the Age of CollapseA Harvard PhD and Retired Air Force Colonel Says Collapse Is Already Inevitable… And No One's Ready. In this episode, we dive into real-world threats most experts won't talk about publicly, including:• A 16–57% annual probability of a collapse-level event• Why the U.S. electric grid is considered the “Achilles heel” of the nation• How AI is lowering the barrier to weapons of mass destruction• The real risk behind H5N1 and engineered pandemics• Why government systems prioritize re-election over survival• And why lone wolf survival is a mythWe also go deep into Fortitude Ranch, one of the largest survival community networks in the U.S., and why group preparedness may be the only realistic path through a major collapse.This isn't fear.This is a risk-based conversation grounded in intelligence analysis and long-term modeling.If you believe in independence, preparedness, and protecting your family… You need to hear this. #Preparedness #GridDown #Collapse  #AI

In his weekly clinical update, Dr. Griffin and Vincent Racaniello talk about the resignation of a member of the advisory committee for immunization practices and the irony of his rationale that a judge slandered him, vaccinating dairy cattle against H5N1, illnesses resulting from drinking raw milk and the US norovirus outbreak, which is not cruise related, then Dr. Griffin deep dives into the measles outbreak in South Carolina and Utah, recent statistics RSV, influenza and SARS-CoV-2 infections, the Wasterwater Scan dashboard, Johns Hopkins measles tracker, where to find PEMGARDA, safety data of the RSV vaccine for high risk young adults, recognition of unrecognized COVID-19 deaths (but weren't we not allow to call it a COVID-19 in 2020?), retraction of and how the ANTIBIOTIC azithromycin is NOT an antiviral drug, how to access and pay for Paxlovid, long COVID patients with neurocognitive symptoms and contacting your federal government representative to stop the assault on science and biomedical research.

Host and American Family Farmer, Doug Stephan www.eastleighfarm.com shares the biggest news affecting family farmers, starting with the House Farm Bill as moved ahead after clearing a committee with support from both Democrats and Republicans following a 20-hour meeting recently. Moving on to the price of chicken, the Avian flu has caused chicken prices to rise sharply in early 2026 due to supply chain disruptions from the culling of millions of birds, with some analysts reporting price increases of over 20% compared to previous years, though down some in comparison to prices last year, and are expected to go up again soon. While egg prices have been more volatile, the ongoing H5N1 outbreak, particularly affecting commercial flocks, has significantly tightened the overall poultry supply.Lastly, Trump's trade policies continue to implement broad tariffs, resulting in significant financial strain on American family farmers. The tariffs have triggered retaliatory actions from other countries, reducing U.S. agricultural exports and lowering prices for major crops, contributing to a 46% rise in farm bankruptcies in 2025.  Website: AmericanFamilyFarmerShow.com Social Media: @GoodDayNetworks

A duck die-off in southern Arkansas brought Dr. Lisa Kercher from St. Jude Children's Research Hospital roaring into camp in her 4-wheel-drive mobile lab the very next morning. We talk about how scientists investigate waterfowl die-offs, what H5N1 means for wild ducks and geese, how influenza spreads among waterfowl and flyways, and the real risks to hunters and our beloved retrievers. A straight look at the science behind bird flu and what it means for duck hunters.   Visit the Legendary Brands That Make MOJO's Duck Season Somewhere Podcast Possible: MOJO Outdoors  Alberta Professional Outfitters Society Benelli Shotguns Bow and Arrow Outdoors Create the X Habitat Management App Ducks Unlimited  Flash Back Decoys GetDucks.com Migra Ammunitions onX Maps  Use code GetDucks25 to save 25% Sitka Gear SoundGear Use code GetDucks20 to save 25% Tom Beckbe USHuntList.com   Like what you heard?

Last year, Crescent Duck Farm on the North Fork was hit by a devastating outbreak of avian influenza and had to cull its entire flock of Pekin ducks. The farm is now rebuilding its stock. But the latest strain of the disease, known as H5N1, is back. It's now raging through its fourth winter season and is proving deadly to a broad swath of wild birds. This year, it's wild waterfowl — especially Canada geese — that are catching bird flu in large numbers, sparking fears that the disease could decimate bald eagles and other birds of prey that feed on dead waterfowl. Recently, East Hampton Town oversaw the cleanup of 675 dead geese and ducks that were thought to have succumbed to the flu in and around Georgica Pond. This week, the editors are joined by senior reporter Michael Wright and Kathleen Mulcahy, director of the Evelyn Alexander Wildlife Rescue Center in Hampton Bays, and Kevin Hynes, director of wildlife health for New York State DEC, to talk about the situation.

Keith Poulsen, professor at the University of Wisconsin and director of the Wisconsin Veterinary Diagnostic Laboratory, provides an update on the status of highly pathogenic avian influenza (H5N1), as pertains to dairy cattle, poultry, wildlife—and humans. Are we making progress in biosecurity in the dairy industry? Dairy may be decades behind, but keep in mind: “Cows are like walking tanks.” Keeping boots and clothes clean is essential to contain viral spread. Vaccines are often not a viable solution, given trade, economics and political realities. What forces are most impacting the affordability of eggs, beef, and other items? Impacting access to rural workforces, especially migrants? What have been the implications of major recent disruptions at USDA, CDC and FDA?

Is the bird flu (H5N1) still a threat? The media may be quiet, but the risk to your pets, particularly cats, is very real.Hosts Alice and Janet welcome renowned expert Dr. Andrew Bowman, MS, DVM, PhD, Diplomate ACVPM, and a specialist in zoonotic and emerging infectious diseases, to get an urgent update.In this vital episode, Dr. Bowman breaks down:- The Current Threat: What strains of highly pathogenic H5N1 are currently circulating, and why they are concerning as they evolve and jump to new species.- The Danger to Cats: How the virus presents in cats—often as a rapidly progressing, fatal neurologic disease—and why it's a diagnostic challenge for veterinarians.- Raw Diets and Risk: The shocking viral load found in milk from infected dairy cattle and Dr. Bowman's strong advice against feeding raw dairy or poultry products to pets.- From Wild Birds to the Farm: The seasonal trends in migratory birds, the challenge of containing the spread on farms, and how this "highly pathogenic" classification may be misleading for non-poultry species.- Prevention: Actionable advice for pet owners, including limiting outdoor exposure for cats and where the public can find resources to track H5N1 detections (USDA).Don't miss this essential discussion to protect your furry family members.Dr. Andrew Bowman MS, DVM, PhD, DACVPM:Dr. Bowman is an expert in viral infectious diseases, veterinary public health, and epidemiology. Dr. Bowman oversees a research team that focuses on infectious diseases in populations. He leads applied field research projects investigating the epidemiology of influenza and SARS-CoV-2 in animal populations, with a focus on transmission across the animal-human interface. Before his return to academia at The Ohio State University College of Veterinary Medicine,, Dr. Bowman was a practicing veterinarian focused on food animal production.https://vet.osu.edu/people/andrew-bowman--What started during the COVID-19 lockdown with one baby gorilla at the Cleveland Zoo has grown into a channel loved by animal fans around the world.

The California Department of Food and Agriculture has lifted its exhibition ban following improved H5N1 conditions.

Intranasal vaccines are back in the spotlight as highly pathogenic avian influenza spreads among birds and spills over into mammals, including recent cases in dairy and poultry workers. In this episode of In Vivo, senior pharma and biotech reporter David Wild talks with Chad Costley, CEO of BlueWillow Biologics and Meagan Deming, an infectious disease researcher at the University of Maryland School of Medicine about a novel intranasal recombinant H5 flu vaccine that aims to stop infection at the gate by building mucosal immunity in the nose. They discuss recent Phase I data, pandemic‑flu preparedness, BARDA/NIH funding realities, and how BlueWillow's NanoVax platform could extend to other major respiratory threats, including TB.

Bird-flu, bombs and asteroids: are we heading for disaster in 2026? What are the biggest threats to global health security in 2026? Is it bird flu? Or the rising threat posed by nuclear weapons? Could we even be hit by an asteroid?Dr Becky Alexis-Martin, a Lecturer in Peace Studies at the University of Bradford and an expert on nuclear weapons, argues that the threat they pose will continue to rise in the new year.Paul Nuki, the Telegraph's Global Health Security Editor, warns that numerous diseases linked to conflict are likely to continue to spread in 2026 – in particular cholera and HIV.Meanwhile, the possibility of H5N1 bird flu making the jump to humans and causing a pandemic remains a primary threat, as does the continued spread of mpox around the world.Lord Martin Rees, the former Astronomer Royal and a founder of the Centre for the Study of Existential Risk, assesses the risk of space-based threats.Producer: Sophie O'SullivanExecutive Producer: Louisa WellsStudio Operator: Meghan Searle► Sign up to our most popular newsletter, From the Editor.

Send us a textA spike in feline H5N1 cases has many of us asking the same question: how did bird flu end up in our living rooms? We sit down with author and clinician Dr. Jane Sykes to map the path from migratory birds to household pets, spotlighting the two biggest drivers of risk for cats—predation on infected wildlife and contaminated raw diets. The conversation is candid, practical, and rooted in current data, with clear guidance for veterinarians and pet owners who want to reduce danger without fear or hype.We break down the clinical pattern that should trigger suspicion: a rapidly worsening illness with fever, lower respiratory signs, neurologic changes like ataxia or seizures, hypersalivation, and even sudden vision loss. Jane shares a step-by-step plan for what to do next: preserve the suspect diet for testing, notify local public health partners, and coordinate diagnostics through NAHLN labs with NVSL confirmation. We also unpack why household cases typically arise from common exposure rather than cat-to-cat spread, and why ending raw feeding across the home is the first and most effective intervention. The oseltamivir question comes up too; Jane weighs the risks, pharmacologic unknowns, and stewardship concerns around antivirals in cats.Listeners get concise takeaways: cooked diets are safer, indoor life or secure catios cut exposure, and detailed dietary histories matter more than ever because many raw products look like pasteurized foods. We touch on the evolving clade 2.3.4.4b, the possibility of reassortment in cats, and why dogs appear more resistant yet still susceptible to infection. Jane points to the research we still need—serology to find silent infections, better food-chain surveillance, and communication tools that help us talk about diet without blame.

Weeds remained an evolving challenge for Wisconsin farmers. Jill Welke gets a recap from UW-Extension Weed Specialist, Dr. Rodrigo Werle. Werle's making his rounds statewide sharing what they learned this growing season. He says there were some breakthroughs this year that proved to be challenging. Those breakthroughs were weeds overcoming existing chemistry to keep growing. Werle says he's got a long list of projects to try and get grower answers for 2026. Above average temperatures will make a white Christmas unlikely in many areas of Wisconsin. Stu Muck explains what's acting as the catalyst for this late December warm-up. Time for another Mid-West Farm Report Ride-A-Long. An opportunity to accept invitations to find out about the latest technology and innovations Wisconsin farmers are evaluating and using. Today we travel to Malta, IL and the site of the Syngenta Seeds Research and Development Innovation Center. Pam Jahnke finds out about the length of time required to develop products like the new Durastak corn rootworm tool. Drew Showalter, Head, Corn Portfolio Strategy, tells Pam about the evolution of the product and why it's a game-changer for Wisconsin farmers. Paid for by Syngenta. On Friday Wisconsin animal health officials announced the genomic sequencing information gathered from the H5N1 positive herd in Dodge County. Pam Jahnke reports that the genotype was found to be D1.1, a spillover from wildlife into dairy cattle. This is new and no connected to previous detections that trace their strain to an outbreak in the Texas Panhandle. Wisconsin's seen no new dairy detections and continues to rigorously monitor dairies through the National Milk Testing Strategy. A new bipartisan bill introduced on Friday could provide hope for wedding barn operators in 2026. The bill LRB-2567 would roll back 2023 Act 73 that restricts venues to six alcohol-consuming events annually. Jean Bahn, operator of Farmview Event Center in rural Green Lake County says potential clients do not like having their event restricted. She says she's lost business because people want to be able to feature alcohol as a guests option. Bahn had previously filed suit against the state claiming Act 73 was unconstitutional and designed to put her out of business. When a court ruling went against her motion last month, this new bipartisan bill became a last ray of hope for retaining business in 2026.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

C dans l'air du 15 décembre 2025 - Ces épidémies qui inquiètent les agriculteurs... et l'OMSL'épidémie de dermatose nodulaire continue de se propager sur le territoire, et les agriculteurs se font entendre. Plusieurs actions de blocage se déroulent ce lundi 15 décembre dans le sud de la France, en réaction à l'abattage de plus de 200 bovins en Ariège la semaine dernière. Routes coupées et mobilisation témoignent d'un mécontentement croissant dans la profession, alors que la ministre de l'Agriculture est attendue ce lundi après-midi à Toulouse pour aborder la crise et lancer symboliquement une grande campagne sanitaire : la vaccination d'un million de bovins en France.« Bien sûr qu'il y a de l'angoisse, parce que chacun s'imagine que le virus est à la porte de son bâtiment d'élevage. Mais la situation est sous contrôle », a tenté de rassurer Annie Genevard ce matin sur France 2, ajoutant que la « discussion sur la suspension des abattages est ouverte ». « Les éleveurs font des propositions sérieuses et réfléchies. Nous allons écouter, regarder, concerter », a promis la ministre.Après être apparue cet été en Savoie, la dermatose nodulaire touche désormais l'Aude, où un premier cas a été détecté ce lundi, après avoir affecté la Haute-Garonne, la Savoie, l'Ain, le Jura, les Pyrénées et l'Ariège. Une maladie qui inquiète et divise le monde agricole. Car si la FNSEA appelle au calme et défend la stratégie gouvernementale, des éleveurs s'opposent à l'abattage systématique des troupeaux touchés et dénoncent le lancement bien trop tardif d'une campagne de vaccination. D'autres pointent l'inaction de l'État face à cette maladie et appellent à un contrôle accru des mouvements d'animaux.La ministre défend de son côté sa stratégie, affirmant s'appuyer sur « ce que la science nous dit, ce que les vétérinaires nous disent, ce que les pays étrangers ont appliqué ». « Il y a trois piliers : le dépeuplement (c'est-à-dire l'abattage, ndlr), la vaccination et la restriction des mouvements », a-t-elle énuméré, ajoutant que « cette stratégie a fonctionné en Savoie, en Haute-Savoie, dans le Jura, en Italie, en Espagne ». « Il faut que chacun ait conscience que l'ennemi, c'est le virus. D'abord, il faut respecter les consignes. Il faut limiter les mouvements, sinon tout va s'étendre et on ne maîtrisera plus rien », a insisté Annie Genevard ce lundi matin.Depuis vendredi dernier, les blocages se multiplient aux quatre coins de la France pour dénoncer la politique sanitaire du gouvernement. Et c'est loin d'être fini. Après d'importantes mobilisations menées tout le week-end, les syndicats ont déjà appelé à d'autres actions toute la semaine. Car d'autres dossiers brûlants alimentent aussi la colère des agriculteurs, comme la baisse annoncée du budget de la Politique agricole commune (PAC) européenne, l'accord de libre-échange prévu entre l'UE et les États du Mercosur, mais aussi la résurgence de la grippe aviaire.Le virus H5N1 atteint un niveau inédit et la France se retrouve parmi les pays les plus frappés par une grippe aviaire en pleine accélération. Entre foyers qui se multiplient, propagation fulgurante en Europe du Nord et risque de mutation, l'hiver s'annonce sous haute surveillance. La circulation très active du virus fait en effet craindre le passage de ce virus à l'humain.Alors, qu'est-ce que la dermatose nodulaire ?

Earlier in November, after a months-long legal battle, the Canadian Food Inspection Agency appeared at Universal Ostrich Farms in the dead of night with snipers, slaughtering ⁠300+ ostriches⁠. The owners of the farm—a family—were forced to listen as their ostriches, many of whom they'd had for 30 years, were killed in an inexplicably inhumane way. The Canadian government used a supposed “H5N1 outbreak” as an excuse, but many, including the farm owners, believe something much more nefarious was afoot. I spoke with⁠ Viva Frei⁠ about the scandal.

The worry about whether H5N1 will trigger a human pandemic has concealed a startling reality. Avian influenza has already taken an enormous toll on the lives of other animals. Since 2005, the number of wild and domesticated birds killed is greater than the combined human populations of the United States and Russia. Bird flu is burning through wild flocks, poultry farms, and mammal populations, including those of sea mammals. We look at the places where the virus can recombine and mutate, and why this version is not simply dying out as it has in years past. At a squawking live poultry market in Brooklyn, and on a Long Island duck farm, we hear about the difficult experience of euthanizing 100,000 birds and whether a farm can recover from such a devastating loss. And finally, we ask, why poultry vaccines that could curb the spread of H5N1 aren't being used. But we begin our episode with descriptions of the soaring global migrations of birds whose feats of endurance help us understand why H5N1 is widespread in birds worldwide. Guests: Scott Weidensaul – Ornithologist, bird migration researcher, and author of "A World on the Wing: The Global Odyssey of Migratory Birds" David Swayne – Bird flu veterinarian Doug Corwin – Farmer and owner of Crescent Duck Farm, Aquebogue, New York Jon Cohen – Senior correspondent with Science Magazine, where you can find his recent article, “The Pandemic Next Time,” and author of "Planning Miracles: How to Prevent Future Pandemics" Featuring music by Dewey Dellay and Jun Miyake You can get early access to ad-free versions of every episode by joining us on Patreon.

What's been called the storm of the century - Hurricane Melissa – has barrelled through Jamaica, Cuba, and the Bahamas over the past two days. Hannah Cloke, Professor of Hydrology at the University of Reading, explains whether Melissa was caused – or made worse - by human-made climate change. As the H5N1 bird flu season picks up across British farms, virologist Ian Brown from the Pirbright Institute assesses its threat and turns our attention to a largely ignored strain of bird flu – H9N2 – which a recent study suggests is becoming adapted to human cells. The interstellar comet 3I/Atlas has inspired some bizarre theories about alien life coming into our solar system. BBC science journalist Roland Pease, who has been watching these cosmic events and the pseudoscientific myths that follow in their wake for decades, gives us his take. And mathematician Katie Steckles brings us her favourite finds from the world of science.If you want to test your climate change knowledge, head to bbc.co.uk search for BBC Inside Science and follow the links to The Open University to take the quiz.Presenter: Victoria Gill Producers: Ella Hubber, Jonathan Blackwell, Tim Dodd Editor: Martin Smith Production Co-ordinator: Jana Bennett-Holesworth

The CFIA ordered a full ostrich cull after H5N1 was detected, even though wild migratory birds likely contaminated the farm's pond — making the ostriches victims, not disease spreaders New studies from California dairy farms show H5N1 in air and wastewater, suggesting industrial livestock operations are aerosolizing and recycling the virus back into the environment through waste systems Despite evidence of natural immunity, CFIA's policy mandates culling all birds on an exposed site, ignoring science and logic by killing healthy survivors that pose less risk Factory farms generate billions of pounds of untreated manure annually, with open-air lagoons and runoff creating ideal conditions for virus transmission — yet regulatory focus remains on small farms A smarter policy would target the real sources — contaminated air, lagoons, and waste — not small farms. Testing, environmental controls, and accountability must come before destroying healthy animals

After discovering a case of bird flu jumping from a dairy cow to a human, scientists have been scrambling to reverse engineer that strain of the virus and test it in laboratory settings. To that end, let's discuss several papers that came out of this effort.

1. Cancellation of Moderna's Bird Flu Vaccine Contract The U.S. Department of Health and Human Services (HHS), under Secretary Robert F. Kennedy Jr., canceled a $766 million contract with Moderna. The contract was intended to fund the development of an mRNA-based vaccine for pandemic influenza, including H5N1 (bird flu). Despite positive early trial results from Moderna, the administration cited scientific, ethical, and safety concerns as reasons for the cancellation. The move reflects RFK Jr.'s skepticism toward mRNA vaccines and aligns with his broader rollback of COVID-19 vaccine recommendations. 2. FBI Reopening High-Profile Investigations FBI Deputy Director Dan Bongino announced the reopening or renewed focus on several public corruption cases, including: The January 6 pipe bomb incident. The White House cocaine discovery (July 2023). The leak of the 2022 Supreme Court decision overturning Roe v. Wade. Bongino emphasized a push for transparency and public engagement, encouraging tips from the public. 3. Federal Crackdown on Harvard University The Trump administration is canceling or redirecting $100 million in federal contracts with Harvard, following a freeze of $2.6 billion in research grants. The administration cites concerns over campus climate, anti-American sentiment, and violence against Jewish and American students. Additional measures include: Pausing student visa interviews. Implementing new social media screening for foreign students. The administration frames this as a move to redirect funds to trade schools, promote accountability, and encourage institutional self-reliance. Please Hit Subscribe to this podcast Right Now.
