    Is there a vaccine for humans against this kind of flu? And will Trump and RFK Jr. ban it and sell Trump Bleach pills instead?

      For H5N1, it seems there are a few vaccines for humans (in addition to vaccinations for poultry):

      Some vaccines also exist for use in humans, and others are in testing. As of July 2024 these include Aflunov, Celldemic and Seqirus/Audenz.[8][9]

      …but it seems the RNA ones are not in production yet?

      Hasn’t been updated in a while, might as well read it before it gets scrubbed…

      I’m picturing an assembly line worker putting a Brainwormz-branded UV tube up the asses of chickens as they go by on a conveyor belt…maybe it will align their chakras at the same time and spritz them with essential oils…
