Welcome to c/news! Please read the Hexbear Code of Conduct and remember... we're all comrades here.

Rules:

-- PLEASE KEEP POST TITLES INFORMATIVE --

-- Overly editorialized titles, particularly if they link to opinion pieces, may get your post removed. --

-- All posts must include a link to their source. Screenshots are fine IF you include the link in the post body. --

-- If you are citing a twitter post as news please include not just the twitter.com in your links but also nitter.net (or another Nitter instance). There is also a Firefox extension that can redirect Twitter links to a Nitter instance: https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/libredirect/ or archive them as you would any other reactionary source using e.g. https://archive.today/ . Twitter screenshots still need to be sourced or they will be removed --

-- Mass tagging comm moderators across multiple posts like a broken markov chain bot will result in a comm ban--

-- Repeated consecutive posting of reactionary sources, fake news, misleading / outdated news, false alarms over ghoul deaths, and/or shitposts will result in a comm ban.--

-- Neglecting to use content warnings or NSFW when dealing with disturbing content will be removed until in compliance. Users who are consecutively reported due to failing to use content warnings or NSFW tags when commenting on or posting disturbing content will result in the user being banned. --

-- Using April 1st as an excuse to post fake headlines, like the resurrection of Kissinger while he is still fortunately dead, will result in the poster being thrown in the gamer gulag and be sentenced to play and beat trashy mobile games like 'Raid: Shadow Legends' in order to be rehabilitated back into general society. --

I saw a woman on XHS saying there was a big outbreak in Atlanta that hasn't been getting any coverage. Apparently a lot of large poultry farms in that area

Quoting my post from another thread for no particular reason:

Cant wait to learn about the next pandemic (on top of the current ongoing one) through healthcare workers anecdotally reporting a huge uptick in respiratory cases, and everyone else noticing a "really bad flu going around."

Do you have any info on this? There’s been a big outbreak in Elbert County, a portion of which is under quarantine, and they’ve upped biosecurity measures across the state. Maybe that’s what they meant? Idk of any big outbreak near Atlanta.

I’ve also seen attempts to blame supposed gain of function testing in Athens GA for the current outbreak. I haven’t looked into that at all but my first thought is it’s bullshit since it’s Peter McCullough and I’m pretty sure the timelines don’t line up. I think we’re probably just gonna be having the same arguments we had during Covid.

Here's the video, it seems like she just said "in Atlanta" but is mentioning cases all around the area and not exclusively in Atlanta proper.

Oh yeah she’s talking about Elbert county. It seems there are other flocks that were hit but Elbert County was the big one. I didn’t realize how close it was to Atlanta.

The disease seems to be spreading pretty heavily in the Atlantic and Mississippi flyways rn. Flocks are getting hit hard up the east coast and in the Midwest, esp Indiana and Ohio.
