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.

Die landbouministerie het meer inligting bekend gemaak na sy direktoraat van veeartsenydienste 'n uitbreking van H5N1-hoëpatogeniese voëlgriep onder gewone sterretjies op Lüderitz bevestig. Intussen toon sowat 30 voëls op Mercury-eiland naby Lüderitz ook tekens van die siekte, wat vermoedelik deur migrasievoëls versprei is. Kosmos 94.1 Nuus het met die ministerie se woordvoerder Simon Nghipandulwa gepraat.

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 ? Derrière l'épidémie, quelles sont les raisons de la colère des éleveurs ? Enfin, pourquoi la grippe aviaire inquiète-t-elle particulièrement les autorités sanitaires cette année ?Nos experts :- Frédéric DENHEZ - Journaliste, spécialiste des questions environnementales - Marianne - Nicolas BERROD - Journaliste, chef adjoint du service santé sciences au Parisien - Aujourd'hui en France - Olivia DETROYAT - Journaliste économique - Le Figaro, en charge du suivi de l'agriculture - Gaelle MACKE - Directrice déléguée de la rédaction - Challenges

It's not just soybeans caught in the crosshairs of tariffs. The U.S. Meat Export Federation is battling against tariffs and phytosanitary challenges on the global scene, too. Dan Halstrom is the CEO of USMEF. He visits with Bob Bosold about the challenges and opportunities he sees. Halstrom notes that while some markets like China are still throwing up obstacles, there are still areas like Central America and regions of Africa that hold tremendous promise for U.S. meat products.Warmer weather is on its way, but it brings gusty winds. Stu Muck says the warmer weather will put a dent in the snowpack around the state by later this week. Wisconsin detected its first case of H5N1 and announced the findings on Sunday. Pam Jahnke gets the details on what consumers should know from Adam Brock, administrator of the Food Safety and Recreation Dept. at DATCP. Brock says with the rigid system Wisconsin put in place earlier this year, the impacted cow/herd was detected before milk left the farm. Brock also reiterates that even milk impacted by H5N1 is safe for human consumption once pasteurized. It's a different dairy story from the current Alice in Dairyland, Sarah Hagenow. She visits with Stephanie Hoff about how real Wisconsin butter adds a delicious element to the holiday season. Hagenow reminds consumers that if they want to know their dairy comes from Wisconsin, look for the "Proudly Wisconsin" badge or the number 55 on the dairy packaging. That tells you the product is Wisconsin-based. Paid for by Dairy Farmers of Wisconsin.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

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.

The advice on bird feeding from BirdWatch Ireland is that it is still perfectly safe to feed birds in your garden, noting that, unlike birds packed together in seabird colonies or wetlands, the species of bird that typically visit gardens are very unlikely to come into contact with the H5N1 virus. Niall Hatch explains why...

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.

Advocacy groups sue the state agriculture department over withheld outbreak data while officials report ongoing bird flu quarantines.

La visita de estado de los Reyes de España a China es controvertida, especialmente tras las críticas a los anteriores acercamientos del Gobierno de Pedro Sánchez por parte de Estados Unidos. Un economista señala que esta política, percibida como venal, puede dañar la posición global de España. En cuanto a la gripe aviar (H5N1), el riesgo de contagio humano es muy bajo, y el consumo de carne o huevos infectados es seguro. Aunque impacta en los precios del pollo y los huevos, la situación sanitaria está bajo control. Una familia madrileña lucha para recuperar a su loro, Kiko, después de que la administración lo retuviera alegando una ley de bienestar animal y con la amenaza de deportarlo al Congo. La seguridad en España se ve amenazada por el aumento de la violencia del narcotráfico, con recientes tiroteos en Sevilla y Toledo que dejaron agentes heridos y muertos. Los cuerpos de seguridad reclaman más recursos y equipamiento para afrontar esta situación. En el ámbito cultural, el PSOE ...

Poultry Farmers are warned this winter is on course to be among the worst for avian flu. This week all poultry in England and Northern Ireland was ordered inside after a number of new cases. The Pirbright Institute's head of avian virology explains why the H5N1 strain of bird flu has become more able to spread, describing it as 'almost a super strain'.A household name in food processing says it's worried about future supplies of raw materials, because farmers confidence is so poor. Behind the scenes with plant experts as Kew's Millennium Seed Bank marks 25 years.MPs say by 2050 almost a quarter of current UK farmland might not be farmed.Presented by Caz Graham and produced by Beatrice Fenton.

Poultry Farmers are warned this winter is on course to be among the worst for Avian Flu. This week all poultry in England and Northern Ireland was ordered inside after a number of new cases.

McCain is the single biggest buyer of British potatoes. It commissioned an online survey of 200 farmers from across the industry, called Farmdex. It found that 51 per cent of respondents had considered leaving farming in the past year, while 40 percent believe they may be forced to leave the industry in the next decade due to economic pressures. McCain is calling on the Government and other food industry players to take steps to improve stability for farmers.And, we visit a small company producing seeds for joyously different varieties of veg from Wrinkled Crinkled Crumpled Cress to the Musselburgh Leek.

Another outbreak of avian influenza, or bird flu, on a commercial turkey farm has been confirmed by the Department of Agriculture. The latest cases of the highly pathogenic H5N1 strain of the virus were detected in the flock on the farm near Kells, Co Meath. Speaking to Newstalk Breakfast was Sarah Hanley, Poultry Executive at the Irish Farmers Association.

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.

Josh Sigurdson reports on the renewed fear campaign for Bird Flu as so-called "experts" claim rather than H5N1, there's a quickly spreading epidemic of H9N2 that risks people worldwide. As the news blasts out this latest propaganda, the UK claims 150,000 birds were impacted by Bird Flu (H5N1) leading to mass culling, similar to what we've seen before. This correlates with an already disrupted and crumbling supply chain for both chicken and beef. Simultaneously, Defra has imposed orders for regional poultry housing following the fear surrounding Bird Flu. St. Louis County, Missouri is also claiming there is a Bird Flu outbreak. The UK has previously mandated backyard chicken registration over Bird Flu fears and recently, the United Nations and the World Bank are targeting small scale chicken farms during their Bird Flu Global Summit. We've also seen as of this month the largest pandemic exercise in history out of the UK with Exercise Polaris. Fear surrounding flu outbreaks are hitting the news everywhere. More and more studies are coming out about the dangers of the Covid injections, yet we see the government continue to double down with the fast tracking of self amplifying mRNA vaccines for Bird Flu. While RFK Jr claims to be fighting big pharma, he had pushed MMR vaccines for Measles, the US government has released 10 new mRNA vaccines for children aged 6 months to 11 years old and Trump gave $7 billion to Pfizer which gives them a monopoly on the next fake pandemic as well as legal protection. Let's also not forget that RFK Jr was confirmed by a pharma funded house. This fearmongering will continue and let's not forget to what end and why. This is all part of the same puzzle to bring in technocracy worldwide utilizing manufactured emergencies. Prepare. Stay tuned for more from WAM!

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

Science writer Stephanie Pappas explores recent research showing that the H5N1 bird flu may spread through the air on dairy farms. She discusses how the virus appears in milk, equipment, wastewater and the air, and what this means for farm safety and public health.Then, Mary Roach, the best-selling author of "Stiff and Fuzz," discusses her latest book, "Replaceable You: Adventures in Human Anatomy." She explores the extraordinary history and emerging science of replacing and repairing the body, from prosthetics to organ transplants.

Hoy, en Ciencia Fresca, traemos dos historias que muestran tanto la importancia de la ciencia para protegernos como la capacidad de la naturaleza para sorprendernos. Por un lado, Jorge Laborda habla del virus de la gripe aviar H5N1, del que se han identificado dos mutaciones que hacen que la variante norteamericana sea mucho más peligrosa que la europea. Al mismo tiempo, otro estudio demuestra que un viejo recurso —la pasteurización— sigue siendo una defensa eficaz frente al virus detectado en la leche. Por su parte, Ángel Rodríguez Lozano explica la conexión entre ciertos ritmos biológicos y los ciclos lunares. Un nuevo estudio revela que el ciclo menstrual humano solía sincronizarse, al menos en parte, con las fases de la Luna, pero en los últimos años este vínculo ancestral se ha debilitado. ¿La causa? El uso masivo de dispositivos electrónicos y la creciente exposición a la luz artificial nocturna.

This week on Ag News Daily, we cover efforts to expand demand for corn and soybean growers, insights of an animal activist report, and share the latest updates in dairy and cattle markets. Plus, we break down takeaways for agriculture from the newest MAHA Commission report. Agriculture headlines on this week's podcast include potential aid for crop growers, two new reports on vegan and animal activist movements nationwide, Nebraska's first H5N1 avian flu case in a dairy herd, and McDonald's investment in farmers' regenerative agriculture practices. Additional stories feature a new economic impact report on fairs across the country, plus the latest weather, market, and fertilizer updates. In this week's interview, Elizabeth Burns-Thompson, Executive Director of the Modern Ag Alliance, discusses the latest MAHA Commission report — the Make Our Children Healthy Again Strategy. This 20-page report follows the nearly 100-page version released earlier this year. She explains what it means for agriculture, how state governments may build on it and why it's vital for farmers to share their stories. Stay connected with us for more agriculture content on Instagram, TikTok, Facebook, and YouTube, along with our weekly videos!

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.
