Bird Flu 2025: Rising Threats, Human Cases, and Expert Prevention Strategies

By Editorial Team -

The recent emergence and spread of avian influenza strains, notably H5N1 and H7N9, have raised significant concerns among health experts and the public alike. These viruses, traditionally confined to bird populations, have begun infecting mammals, including cattle and humans, prompting discussions about potential pandemic threats and preventive measures.

Transmission from Birds to Mammals

Historically, avian influenza viruses primarily affected bird species. However, recent reports indicate that these viruses have crossed species barriers, infecting mammals such as cattle, sea lions, dolphins, and seals. In the United States, the H5N1 strain has been detected in dairy cattle, leading to significant outbreaks and raising concerns about human infections. While human cases remain rare and have not resulted in human-to-human transmission, the potential for the virus to adapt further poses a serious threat. (Houston Chronicle)

Recent Human Cases and Mortality

The first human death from H5N1 in the United States was reported this year, underscoring the virus's potential severity. Globally, from 2003 to 2024, H5N1 has caused approximately 950 human cases and over 400 deaths, reflecting a high mortality rate of 52%. These statistics highlight the critical need for vigilant monitoring and proactive measures to prevent widespread transmission. (CT Insider)

Expert Insights: Dr. Peter McCullough's Perspective

Renowned cardiologist and epidemiologist, Dr. Peter McCullough, has expressed heightened concern over the recent developments in avian influenza. He emphasizes the significance of the D1.1 genotype of the H5N1 virus, which has been associated with severe human cases and a 50% mortality rate. Dr. McCullough advocates for enhanced preventive strategies, including the use of iodine-based nasal sprays and gargles, to reduce viral transmission. (One Day MD)

Preventive Measures and Recommendations

In light of the evolving situation, several preventive measures are recommended:

  • Personal Protective Equipment (PPE): Individuals working closely with potentially infected animals should utilize appropriate PPE to minimize exposure.

  • Iodine-Based Nasal Sprays: Routine use of povidone-iodine nasal sprays and gargles has demonstrated virucidal activity against various influenza strains, offering an additional layer of protection.

Conclusion

The recent trends in avian influenza infections necessitate a proactive and informed approach to prevention. By implementing recommended protective measures and staying abreast of developments, individuals and health authorities can work collaboratively to mitigate the risks associated with these evolving viral threats.

FLCCC I-Recover Protocol: Post Vaccine Treatment Protocol (2025)

By Editorial Team -
Image
Over the last three years, the COVID-19 pandemic has transformed almost every aspect of our lives before we've had time to stop and question it. Although no official definition exists for post-COVID-vaccine syndrome, a temporal correlation between a patient receiving a COVID-19 vaccine and beginning or worsening of clinical manifestations is sufficient to diagnose as a COVID-19 vaccine-induced injury, when the symptoms are unexplained by other concurrent causes. Dr. Paul Marik and Dr. Pierre Kory are pleased to introduce the I-RECOVER: Post-Vaccine Treatment protocol, designed to help people who have experienced adverse symptoms after a COVID vaccine. Kory and Marik are both part of the FLCCC (The FLCCC Alliance is now the Independent Medical Alliance ), which was founded in 2020 to share early treatment protocols for COVID-19. Kory is an ICU specialist, triple board certified in internal medicine, critical care and pulmonary medicine. He now runs a privat...

Front Line Doctors Ivermectin Protocol for Prevention and Treatment of COVID-19 (2024)

By Editorial Team -
Image
The Front Line COVID-19 Critical Care (FLCCC) Alliance was initially formed as a working group during the early COVID-19 pandemic days in response to multiple early reports of COVID patients with an inexplicably high need for prolonged mechanical ventilation and an excessive death rate.  Based on rapidly emerging clinical trials evidence, the FLCCC team has developed the   I-MASK+ protocol   ( is now divided into I-Prevent and I-Care protocols ) for prophylaxis and at home treatment of early stage COVID-19. Quercetin, zinc and a number of nutrients and drugs are part of this protocol, not only for critical care but also for prophylaxis and mild disease being treated at home. This article, we will dive deeper to provide the scientific background, related references and rationale of the FLCCC protocols.

Please enjoy this continuing medical education lecture delivered at 40th Cellular Detoxification Conference sponsored by International College of Integrative Medicine in Indianapolis, Indianana, on September 7 2024. There are no medicine grand rounds or primary care conferences addressing this topic. It is a white space in medicine where no academic medical center has a fundamental approach to handling about 5-10% of the population suffering from post-acute sequalae after recurrent SARS-CoV-2 infection or COVID-19 infection. Both load the body with pathogenic Spike protein which incites inflammation, oxidative stress, coagulation, and all the downstream effects that result in symptoms.

By Editorial Team -

A world-first study reportedly shows certain Australian garlic varieties kill Covid and the flu with “99.9 per cent efficacy” - but not everyone agrees with the findings. A world-first study which reportedly shows certain Australian garlic varieties kill Covid and the flu with “99.9 per cent efficacy” is yet to be officially published, while the industry body which commissioned the research has “not decided to release the detailed findings”.   Melbourne’s Doherty Institute  on Wednesday  (May 31, 2023) revealed that it had discovered the potent antiviral properties of Australian-grown garlic after 18 months of in-vitro testing against the SARS-CoV-2 and Influenza type A viruses, using ingredients extracted from different garlic strains. “We wanted to know if these strains had the possibility of killing Covid-19,” Dr Julie McAuley, manager of Doherty’s high containment facility Covid-19 research lab, told  The Austr...
