RFK Jr.’s Prescription for Bird Flu on Farms: Let It Spread
The health secretary has suggested allowing the virus to spread, so as to identify birds that may be immune. Such an experiment would be disastrous, scientists say.

New publication with Alice Boyle and
@inkliizii.bsky.social
is out! This work is the first project I have completed as a scientist, and I am so excited to share! We found experimental support for the idea that nest orientation is, in part, a regulatory mechanism for nest microclimate. 🧵(1/5)
