U.S. will buy regular flu shots for farmworkers to prevent bird flu from getting more dangerous - Lemmy.World

Health officials are worried about what might happen if people are infected with bird flu and seasonal flu at the same time. It’s possible the viruses could swap gene segments, in a process that scientists call reassortment.

Flu shots won’t be mandatory.

Idk, should mass animal farms be limited by density?

Let’s stop “farming” animals. I suggest converting these barns to mushroom farming, I can never have enough mushrooms.

There are people that don’t like mushrooms.

They’ll make a good substrate for the mycelium.

More importantly, mushrooms very commonly cause digestive upset for a lot of people, even safe ones and even when cooked. I love mushrooms and even go foraging, but I recently realized I'm one of these people.

I’m sorry for you. That would suck so hard for me, I love my little 'shrooms.

Tonight I’ll harvest my oyster mushroom, the lion’s mane needs just a few more days.

I do dream of the day I can buy more than mini bellas and white buttons. Give me a nice big chunk of lionsmane or a bag of chestnuts

So… You just want more than 1 option at the store?

White button, baby bella/cremini, and portabello mushrooms are all the same mushroom, just at different maturity.

Lions Mane doesn’t ship very well for commercial purposes. You might find it at markets… But you’re best off growing it yourself.
