CDC is testing samples from people and APHIS from anmals.
There has been a great deal of pushback regarding the fact that while the US complains that China hid information on the spread etc. of COVID, the US is hiding similar information on the spread of avian influenza.
No livestock have been culled. Sick animals have been separated from the other animals and the milk discarded for a period of time. 166 million poultry have been culled since early 2022, but according to CDC's website, none have been culled for the past 18 days:
The PCR tests are done (it varies by state, but generally) locally, then at state public health lab and then confirmed at one of 2 APHIS national labs. I have been unable to find any info about the protocols, commercial test kits vs custom tests, etc. The agencies apparently do not want the public to be able to repeat/review their protocols.
How does the on site qPRC compare to sending a sample for raw sequencing data? Seems the sequencing would allow for more data and might turn up something unexpected like hanta virus.
Oxford Nanopore could be run on site but that is usually PCR directed. Whole Transcriptome sequencing on ONT would be expensive to perform on all livestock.
Pooled PCR→ONT could be done on site with but you’d need more competent lab staff to scale this. qPCR is just boil and shoot. ONT requires you make a RNA sequencing library.
You might want to check out the work Carl Heneghan and Tom Jefferson (Trust the Evidence) have done on this in the UK. They’ve been busy FOIAing the government about their H5N1 ‘vaccine’ purchases. And about the claimed human case in the UK.
While FSMA bifurcated responsibility for animal vaccines to USDA and human vaccines to FDA, I think a case can be made, especially if zoonotic potential exists, that any animal vaccine that has human public health concerns, HHS will intervene. This was the reason the cattle H5N1 mRNA vaccine was walked back. Rollins bears watching closely. As for PCR protocol, thank you for showing that they aren’t disclosing this.
Don’t know if this helps or not, Dr Peter McCullough discusses Bird Flu passaging done to 4strains of bird flu for testing in mallard ducks. He goes on to describe the current (batch) method of sampling chickens to determine presence of bird flu in a flock. Entire process highly suspect, don’t assume all chicken farms are agreeing to this USDA inspection.
Here’s a link to 10 min of Dr Peter McCullough talking w Del BigTree on topic in prior week’s HighWire:
But no details about of who is providing the animal tests and what are they looking for in them, i.e. which proteins from the H5N1 are being checked for.. The canadian case on the emu(?) farm is just shocking, with how much terror the authorities are acting, well continuing ever since 2020, without being prosecuted for all these crimes in the first place.
also one more lesson from covid times, any official tests by biotech companies better be first tested for a contamination in order to exclude a complete fraud of intended spreading instead of detecting the pathogenic agent... Sounds crazy, but the past was it too..
You mean like how they built that Apollo lunar lander from curtain rods, warped metal sheeting, canvas, torn art paper, sticky tape and aluminium foil?

What would a mobile lab in a truck with Whole Transcriptome sequencing on ONT idea look like? Could the equipment stand the road vibration?
Yes. They run them on the space station.
The trick is the front end lab work and technical expertise.
Most people use both. qPCR can be run on many more samples and 1-5% of the positives get graduated to ONT sequencing.
"Most people"? Meaning producers who do their own testing?
They're doing it again because we failed to hang them last time.
Anyway, apparently amantadine works well against h5n1.

Does anybody know what they’re doing?

"Built" the virus? A real virus?

That sort of "built" and that sort of "real"?
