Polis "verbally" declared the disaster after "an avian flu outbreak in a commercial poultry facility in Weld County," reads an official statement from Polis' office on July 8. The statement does not name the facility that was allegedly impacted by H5N1.
The emergency disaster declaration allows Polis and his regime to use emergency powers to "take all necessary and appropriate state actions to assist with response, recovery, and mitigation efforts."
The Colorado Department of Agriculture (CDA) confirmed that 1.78 million chickens were "impacted" by the bird flu strain, which of course means that the food fowl were slaughtered to keep everyone "safe."
On July 3, CDA announced that a dairy worker in northeastern Colorado supposedly became infected with H5N1 after having "direct exposure" to cattle supposedly sick with the virus. The worker's only symptom was mild conjunctivitis, also known as "pink eye."
"He has recovered," the agency said in a follow-up statement about the worker. "This case is an employee at a dairy farm in northeast Colorado who had direct exposure to dairy cattle infected with avian flu. To protect patient privacy, additional details are not being provided."

Early on, it seemed as though the powers that be (TPTB) were going to try to hawk up monkeypox, also known as mpox, as the new Wuhan coronavirus (COVID-19) "pandemic." Since monkeypox is primarily an LGBT disease, it seems they switched to H5N1 instead.
H5N1 has "not adapted to spread from person to person," the establishment still claims. However, H5N1 can supposedly now transfer from animals to humans, which is why (or so they say) government bureaucrats are slaughtering food animals like chickens with haste.
"Right now, the most important thing to know is that people who have regular exposure to infected animals are at increased risk of infection and should take precautions when they have contact with sick animals," said Colorado state epidemiologist Rachel Herlihy.
Already, we are hearing calls for people exposed to animals, i.e., farm workers, to slap on a mask, wear eye protection and gloves, and live in fear that they might catch a bird flu virus from their flocks and herds.
Over the past month, Colorado reported that about two dozen commercial dairy herds were impacted by H5N1, this after no cases being reported all throughout 2023. In 2022, eight commercial poultry flocks are said to have been impacted by H5N1.
So far in 2024, three dairy workers in multiple states, including Texas and Michigan, are said to have become infected with bird flu, this after one became infected in Colorado back in 2022. Two of the cases resulted in pink eye while one saw a cough, eye discomfort and a "watery discharge."
Michigan, like Colorado, is trying to scare its residents about bird flu. Another prominent dairy state, Michigan has allegedly seen 26 herds affected by H5N1. Authorities there are urging farms not to share equipment and to also take other mitigatory measures, i.e., masking, to keep farm workers "safe."
The Food and Drug Administration (FDA) is using the opportunity to tout the allege merits of milk pasteurization, which the federal agency says is "effective at inactivating [the virus]."
"In each of the total of nine repeated (pasteurization) experiments, the virus was completely inactivated," the agency added.
Looks like another manufactured "outbreak" that will soon turn into another "pandemic" to oppress the world. Find out more at Outbreak.news.
