Many cold and flu viruses are found in animals. That is why we can’t create a vaccine to completely eliminate such viruses, and why we will not vaccine our way out of COVID.

I thought this was common knowledge now. Your pets can even get it according to the CDC. They claim there is a slim chance you can get it from them though…in other words you CAN get it from them.
This is why comparing Covid to smallpox and the like is so silly. Those other diseases didn’t have animal reservoirs.

You guys can joke about this all you want but it's not going to change how dangerous of a disease this is for the entirety of life on earth. I've seen 5 deer just this summer on ventilators with no signs of it slowing down.

That virus, just like most viruses, is in all of the animal populations. Dogs, cats mice. It’s all around you. And just like the common cold and seasonal viruses they will be always with us. We cant make it go away. The more we try the more variants.

There was a a British study posted here no long ago that suggested possibly euthanizing certain animal populations.

This is why you don’t tell Beth “She can’t save a deer.”

Yup, animals are also host reservoirs for the virus.
Plays a significant role into why vaccines will never give us herd immunity.

Yep. He used the term "animal reservoirs".

fricking with the natural balance of nature couldn't possible create any issues right?

So it can jump from humans to animals. Can the virus morph in animals and jump back to humans?

The first batch of males is expected to emerge during the first two weeks of May [2021]. Around 12,000 males will be released from the boxes each week over the next 12 weeks.
In a second phase scheduled for later this year, Oxitec expects nearly 20 million mosquitoes to emerge over a period of about 16 weeks.
Maybe there's some correlation here that we're not seeing?

More info on the mosquito:
It takes about 7-10 days for an egg to develop into an adult mosquito.
Adult, female mosquitoes lay eggs on the inner walls of containers with water, above the waterline.
Eggs stick to container walls like glue. They can survive drying out for up to 8 months. Mosquito eggs can even survive a winter in the southern United States.
