The #finnish #furindustry has provided the perfect environment for human and bird #infuenza viruses to merge, which has a huge potential to become the next #pandemic .

But the factually disappearing industry is complaining it is too significant for the country to be shut down.

Guess what is the gross profit per Finnish person? 10 €. 65 M€ in total.

I’d like to not see the next pandemic happen due to #greed but here we are not even close to that but this is pure insanity.

From bad to worse: How the avian flu must change before it can trigger a human pandemic

What researchers know so far about the steps needed to adapt H5N1 to humans offers some reassurance: It has one of the highest barriers to becoming a pandemic virus of any avian influenza virus...“It’s really wrong in so many ways. But obviously it only has to get the right combination of mutations once to do to jump.”

Lo cierto es que el #coronavirus no matará tanto como la #PesteNegra o la #gripeespanola pero no podremos evitar una cesantía desatroza en nuestro país y el mundo entero. Tendremos dos años muy inciertos pero menos terribles que la #infuenza que nos atacó en los años 50
