Adding it here for visibility. Looking to start routinely monitoring dairy products from Wisconsin milk and cream producers. NO H5N1 found in ANY Wisconsin retail products tested thus far, want to use retail monitoring to provide one type of early indication in case this changes.

Got milk? Interested in citizen science? We are starting to look for grocery store milk and cream from certain dairy processors (can be identified from labeling on the carton) from around Wisconsin as part of our ongoing H5N1 influenza monitoring. DM @dho_lab if interested.

For those of you that have asked me why I am convinced that cryptic lineages are coming from people, I can finally point to a pre-print with @dho and many fantastic collaborators in the UWisc and Wisc Public Health.

Had my first awful @Airbnb @AirbnbHelp experience ever due to a combination of a mistake I made at booking, poor AirBnB platform design, and a host who exploited loopholes in the AirBnB system.

After learning that their policies enable hosts to act in bad faith (by not responding to my initial message that would have avoided the entire situation), I'm not sure how much I'm willing to trust @Airbnb or their hosts in the future.

Which is a shame, because I've really enjoyed our previous stays and especially our AirBnB experiences.
And with that, back to my long Twitter hibernation!
