The answer seems to be that H5N1 is (thankfully) a non issue. Yes it’s bad that surveillance is impaired, but the prior on new flu strains going viral is low and we should just take the W sometimes.

One thing I’ve been wondering about: why is H5N1 so quiet? It’s everywhere & exposure risk remains high. No news on new cases. Is this because there are no new cases or just less testing? So I took a look at some numbers. Spoiler: it’s bad policy & sabotaged response capacity.
