'Flammable' and 'inflammable' both describe something that ignites easily and burns quickly.
The ‘in-’ in ‘inflammable’ means “to cause to be,” as in the words ‘indent’ and ‘indebted.’

So.
It has officially happened. I have been officially let go from my position at CDC. I wasn’t a probationary employee. I had stellar performance reviews every year.
I’ll be ok. But please understand that many worked HARD to get into these positions and were doing great public health work.

We are now finding bird flu in deer mice and house mice in Washington State.
H5N1 is advancing along the evolutionary ladder—affecting birds, mammals, and humans. This is not speculation; it’s a timeline.

A preprint published yesterday warns that the continued spread of H5N1 bird flu in dairy cattle gives the virus more opportunities to evolve and adapt, thereby increasing its zoonotic potential.

I’d recommend everyone regardless of medical risk bring a mask on your airplane journey, a disinfectant wipe to clean the seat you’re in and hand sanitizer.
It’s going to be on you alone to protect your health.
Warning signs are everywhere.
