Bird Flu Fearmongering Prompts Spike in Survival Beef Sales
Breitbart ^ | 05/17/2024 | PREPPER ALL-NATURALS (SPONSORED)

Posted on 05/17/2024 6:00:08 AM PDT by ChicagoConservative27

Mainstream media has been covering bird flu incessantly for weeks. It has been compared to COVID-19 and even the Bubonic plague with talking head “doctors” practically declaring it to be the next pandemic.

Whether their concern is real or part of an election year operation is debatable, but what has become crystal clear is that Americans are viewing the sudden bird flu attention from government agencies as a reason to stock up on long-term storage beef.

“The beef industry is undeniably under attack,” said JD Rucker, CEO of Prepper All-Naturals. “Whatever risk, if any, that bird flu poses to cattle and thereby to beef-eating humans, it’s being amplified 10 times or more.”

Cases of bird flu found in cattle are minimal, and diagnosed cases in humans are rare. But everyone from the CDC to the FDA are using mainstream corporate media to spread fear among consumers.

I have read that some remote Alaskan (and elsewhere) villages survived the 1918Spanish Flu pandemic without casualties by posting armed sentries at entrances exits and turning EVERYONE away until the danger appeared past (three waves over 2.5 years?)

I had a relative who was orphaned at a very young age when both his parents (in their 20’s) died in the same week during this. I believe it disproportionately killed those with the healthiest and strongest immune systems by triggering an deadly over-reaction histamine response in the lungs. I’ve read of soldiers in their late teens killed by it. The disease turned their skin blue purple from suffocation and military autopsies found their lungs packed almost solidly with foamy material, leaving no room for moving air in and out. Creepy.

Don’t forget the toilet paper. oh, wait, beef-never mind. I never understood why toilet paper disappeared during the fun of 2020. Never heard a good explanation.

Because it is one of the most important things to have period, and is needed everyday and doesn’t have a shelf life and stocking up at its lowest price is smart.

If that’s the case, then why isn’t it always flying off the shelf? Still doesn’t answer the question as to why it was hoarded during 2020.

Sure, when the supply system is collapsing TP is one of the first and best things to stock up on.

You dare not be without it and it doesn’t spoil or get old.

I am more concerned about the turd worlders coming across the border bringing diseases we wiped out decades ago.

Prepper ping – Alert, but not a warning, about the bird flu and beef consumption
“The beef industry is undeniably under attack,” whether it is a concern or not is up to the consumer
The WEF (World Economic Forum) wants you to eat insects rather than meat as your primary protein source

(From the article):”Cases of bird flu found in cattle are minimal, and diagnosed cases in humans are rare.
But everyone from the CDC to the FDA are using mainstream corporate media to spread fear among consumers.”

”Mainstream media has been covering bird flu incessantly for weeks.
It has been compared to COVID-19 and even the Bubonic plague with talking head “doctors” practically declaring it to be the next pandemic. “

Because it's election time again. You really wanna scare someone? Look at all the diseases and ailments this government is letting into this country with these third world, illegal slags. Typhus, typhoid, tuberculosis, necrotizing fasciitis (flesh eating disease), gonorrhea, syphilis, measles. There are plenty more and the government doesn't screen for any of them. Probably not even Covid.

“The lab tests (USDA) found that retail ground beef cooked to at least medium − meat with an internal temperature of 145 degrees − was safe.
Grilling bird flu-infected burgers at medium killed the H5N1 avian influenza.
In patties cooked at lower temperatures, including juicy medium-rare ones that clocked in at 120 degrees,
the virus remained present in small amounts, federal health officials announced at a news conference Thursday."

”Overall, officials emphasized beef is safe if you heat it sufficiently on the grill.
Nationally representative samples of beef, officials said, did not appear to show traces of the virus.”

The toilet paper thing was social media hysteria that resulted in hoarding .

Truly bizarre .

How about all those people regularly doing their daytime business at work now suddenly doing it at home—and maybe not having stocked up for that, let alone their local markets being shut down on them? Would that not lead to understandable panic purchases?

There’s an old saying...

The boss makes a dollar while I make a dime
and that’s why I poop on company time.

Early in the panicdemic, everyone in my workplace was switched to 100% remote work.

The day after that was announced I went to Sam’s Club and bought four of their 45-roll TP packs. Mrs. Augie thought that I had lost my mind.

Was back at Sam’s the following weekend. There wasn’t a single roll of TP to be found. At that moment, from the wife’s perspective, I became the smartest man on the planet.

I had TP left over from prepping for Y2K! And masks from a bird flu years ago. My wife thought I was nuts doing that.

She thought I was nuts for prepping when the news from China first started coming out about Covid. I was stocked up on all sorts of things two weeks before we were told to stay home “for two weeks”.

So by being prepared I didn’t add to the shortages and was able to help out relatives and neighbors out of my stash of stuff.

Now I realize that much of those early videos coming out of China was a scam and fear-mongering by the Chinese. (People walking in the streets and dropping dead with blood coming out of their mouths, etc.) The huge trucks spewing out “anti-viral spray” were actually steam trucks they used often. They were used to try to help clear soot in the air. The soot combines with the water molecules and falls to the ground.

The Spanish flu wasnt what it was claimed to be either and similar to the last hoax much of the deaths attributed to it was misuse of medicine and dirty masks.

Maybe the take away is dont over react to government lies.

Because most people have no idea what influenza is and call every intestinal disturbance “the flu”.
