The California-based Raw Milk Institute called the warnings "clearly fearmongering." The institute's founder, Mark McAfee, told the Los Angeles Times this weekend that his customers are, in fact, specifically requesting raw milk from H5N1-infected cows. According to McAfee, his customers believe, without evidence, that directly drinking high levels of the avian influenza virus will give them immunity to the deadly pathogen.
By all means, drink up, morons, get the hell out of our gene pool, we've got enough troubles without your Dimwit DNA.

The problem is they infect the rest of us.

Crazy. The zombie apocalypse started from people wanting to become infected.

It’ll only be a matter of time until the virus mutates and successfully transmits from human to human.

I'll still be safe. I don't generally drink human milk.
-
Believe it or not, human milk is almost exclusively consumed by humans.

tell me more about the “almost” part …

I don’t have an inside scoop, I just try not to speak in absolutes. It’s probably a safe bet that someone, somewhere, must have a story to tell.
-
welp, guess you’re right. It’s not common but not just a few someone’s either.

Honestly, I get it.

Yeah, the fur babies are obviously much cuter and will grow out of their worst baby behaviors much faster than the skin puppy..

I sincerely wish I could unread "skin puppy"

I didn't coin the term, I'm just spreading it with gleeful sadism 😛

All, I assume, are very good boys.

That’s surprisingly wholesome.

This is definitely in the top 10 weirdest things I have seen someone post that has a legitimate Wikipedia entry...

And it's the internet, there are so many people just waiting to well-ackshually you.

I thought I saw something with kittens once, but I hope I’m remembering incorrectly. Don’t think I am though.

It's like the "facemasks are causing COVID-19" thing.

It's like homeopathy but even stupider

To be fair to them, that is pretty close to how immunity actually works. Not quite there though.

Well it will give immunity, to the ones that survive.
