re: COVID spreads rapidly among Deer

No, not dumb, but tell the truth, you struggle with naivety don't you? Nothing to be ashamed of, it can be treated. So the article you're so fond of, the part(s) where it attempts to discreetly reference the subtle language such as "evidence points to" and "models show" and the like, that really doesn't pique your interest in any way? The lack of certainty, the vague references? Doesn't give you any pause whatsoever? Such a potentially dire prognostication with "global" implications, those items don't spark any curiosity at all regarding whether there's perhaps an ulterior motive behind this??

Do you suspect they'll be publishing similar reports on all of God's other creatures residing within our borders? I hope so because they've got a long, long way to go to scratch all of them off the list. But maybe they've already done the research on every other animal and have ruled them out, but the dang whitetail deer are not so lucky. How do you suppose this could become the alleged problem, the connectinf link between the deer and the rest of the world? It ain't that we'll be sitting next to them at a football game. Mostly white guys harvesting them probably makes more sense, right? Pretty coincidental. Come on man.

I remember scientists saying at the beginning of the Covid that it was impossible to vaccinate our way out of a respiratory virus pandemic.Part of the issue is because of animal reservoirs.
Covid is a corona virus and most animals are susceptible to corona virus infections.Dogs for example are vaccinated for a type of corona virus that causes a gastrointestinal illness.
Wikipedia has a very good write up about coronavirus.Article said birds that are infected suffer respiratory illness that can range from mild to fatal.
Maybe the birds already have it.I’ve been deer hunting at least 10 times this year and I thought it strange that I was seeing so few birds.

So you have no regard for your fellow man I see. Think of the children, bro.

I kid, of course, and I don't doubt at all the overall concept of these animal reservoirs, but it just struck me as very suspicious that they jump straight to whitetail deer, to the exclusion of all the countless other animals. And like I mentioned before, it doesn't even definitively make any concerning conclusions, instead cites "models show" and "evidence suggests". And I went back to look because I thought I read in there that similar animals as whitetail deer were found to be infected with covid in another country, but alas it cited minks in another country.

So it's just jumping from mink in some other country to randomly whitetails here, it's mighty coincidental. Hell, you'd think they would at least mention things like cows, turkeys, chickens, maybe fish, etc. in an effort to address what surely must immediately come to peoples' minds as they read through that article....."sheesh, I don't eat much deer, but I sure do eat a bunch of farm animals.....sure would be nice to read something about them."

And I have no problem proclaiming a bit of an aversion to conspiracy hypotheses (I find that the word "theories" on that can rub people the wrong way) but I'm stubbornly in the Occam's Razor camp, yet the intended insinuations with the whitetail hunting connection and the perception that white guys in the midwest and south drag them out of the woods and into society often (thus how and who would cause spread from deer to the rest of society), it seems pretty obvious to me. But that's just me and I'm the first to acknowledge that I could easily be dead wrong.

That's a lotta shite to read there, I know.

Someone give me a quick fact check...do horses get Covid? Nope theyre all on ivermectin

If another deer gets on the elevator coughing, I'm going to be pissed.

The only deer I come within 6’ are not breathing. I would imagine that’s the case for most people.

I really can't beleive this was a quote from a scientist in the article. Even more frustrated that NPR printed it.

We had COVID mapped enough in April of 2020 to know that it would not be eradicated, it would eventually be endemic, the question was time line and pathway from A to B.

Your average Karen and OT nurse is still under the false assumption that covid could be eradicated like Polio, biggest driver of vaccine hysteria.

My son shot a deer this past weekend. Deer didn't have mask. I hope I'm not infected.
