CRAIN'S COMMENTS

We have an outbreak of avian flu (Eurasian H5N1) in wild bird population in the Eastern US. There are guesses as to the source of the outbreak, which has spread to and decimated some farm flocks of chickens and turkeys.(1)

This flu can kill a turkey within six hours of initial symptoms.

Thus far, there is no evidence of human infection by this virus. However, the last time avian flu did cross over, it killed 60% of those who were infected.

Meanwhile, we’re waiting to see how Omicron BA.2 unfolds. The most recent data, posted on February 22, shows it as being 3.9% of reported new cases. If that doubles at the next reading, it would indicate another wild ride ahead. It spreads 30% more easily than the original Omicron, and causes more severe illness. BA.2 has triggered another surge in Covid infections in Denmark.

Stay tuned for updates.

CÓMO DUELE

Ventana literaria

CÓMO DUELE

Duele, duele fuerte
que al otro lado del continente
esos viejos que se conocen y odian
no estén en primera línea
para sentir el terror de la guerra

Duele, duele fuerte
que muchos que no se conocen ni se odian
acaban matándose por caprichos ajenos
mientras al rededor unos buscan refugios
porque les han quitado la paz.

Duele y duele mucho
cuando gente sin experiencia
toma las armas para defender su patria
y muchos esposos, tíos, hermanos y jóvenes
tal vez no retornen y solo queden
esposas viudas y niños huérfanos.

Cómo duele…
cuando madres dan la vida por defender
esa bendita tierra que los vio nacer
y ahora queda la incertidumbre,
una herida y campos de noches eternas.

Russia bans words ‘invasion’ and ‘assault’ in media, warns several outlets | The Times of Israel

Russia’s communications regulator on Saturday ordered independent media to remove reports describing Moscow’s attack on Ukraine as an “assault, invasion, or declaration of war” or face being blocked and fined.

As Russian forces moved into Kyiv, Moscow’s defense ministry also said that Russian media should stick to the official version of events.

In a statement, the communications watchdog accused a number of independent media outlets of spreading “unreliable socially significant untrue information” about the shelling of Ukrainian cities by the Russian army and civilian deaths.

These included television channel Dozhd and the country’s top independent newspaper Novaya Gazeta, whose editor Dmitry Muratov was awarded the Nobel Peace Prize last year.
