A Bluesky post

So we are screwed?

It was ment as a fun post, but as some people are genuinely scared. H5N1 is nasty BUT human infection is EXTREMELY rare. There have been less than 1k cases in 20y. You are 80 times more likely to die from lightning strike. If you don't carry lightning rod around you should not worry.

Bluesky is funny. The libs are always so excited to shit on Trump - they didn't even shit on the OP and he really deserves it. He's impervious to knowledge and reason.
