       This old Masked Man's view on facts and opinions,
       News states the facts and opinions for example:
       FACT: "Metro Richmond Zoo reports positive bird flu cases"
       OPINION: "the public risk is low"
       ... here's some more FACTS:
       "Infected birds can shed avian influenza A viruses in their
       saliva, nasal secretions, and feces. Susceptible birds become
       infected when they have contact with the virus as it is shed by
       infected birds. They also can become infected through contact
       with surfaces that are contaminated with virus from infected
       birds".
       (This means it spreads bird to bird and to surfaces as well)
       "The spread of the H5N1 virus within and among herds indicates
       that bovine-to-bovine spread occurs. Overall, animal movement is
       a recognized risk for disease transmission. Evidence also
       indicates that the virus can spread from dairy cattle premises
       to nearby poultry facilities". (This means cows give it to cows
       also from surfaces and from poultry as well)
       FACT: This bird flu is happening with scores of different
       species  besides just poultry and cattle  all over the world
       Masked Man News...
       FACT: "So basically bird flu is spreading to and fro from other
       species and from within and betwixt those species as well
       (making me wonder why wouldn't it spread human to human?")
       OPINION: "The public Risk is HIGH!"
       Take care,
       The mask is the lesser of the two evils,
       The Masked Man
       P.S. just a side note another genuine issue is that people give
       viruses to animals even more than animals give people viruses
       such as tourists and children can give animals viruses such as
       covid and exchange viruses amongst several species as of date.
       I'd be afraid of the petting area to be honest Id be afraid to
       not mask for the animals sake:
       "Children's Petting Area
       Meet, greet, and feed the zoo’s barnyard animals: goats, camels,
       sheep, llamas, chickens! Purchase zoo treats to participate in
       this animal feeding area. Young children and people of all ages
       love interacting with these friendly, domesticated friends".
       ...FACT: If you don't think people give an entire herd or flock
       of animals covid think again. It's well documented people are
       giving flocks and herds of animal covid and other illnesses.
       Currently The Richmond zoo shows nothing but photos of maskless
       tourists and children interacting with animals such as feeding
       and touching animals snouts and membranes...This is not healthy
       or normal interaction for animals to be constantly touched by
       children or tourists..that's not normal for these animals to be
       surrounded by human touch behavior and antics. (I had a friend
       with a small Zoo and he forbid people to touch or intervene in
       the lives of any of his animals) OPINION:This is a video of
       animal exploitation.. this is not necessary for animals to be
       healthy and happy to have tourists, children strangers and
       cameras in their snouts and poking fingers in animals faces all
       the time to get a reaction in their territory..each of us are
       entitled to our opinion but circuses were shut down because of
       this.Not only are  birds in a pandemic of their own called bird
       flu, cats and bovine animals are at risk for bird flu too as
       well as covid..none of these scenes in this video are natural,
       healthy, or beneficial or fair for the animal's sake..animals
       are not toys  :
  HTML https://metrorichmondzoo.com/things-to-do/
  HTML https://youtu.be/MkE3fcBLpXI
       These are my opinions on the matter.I have religious views and
       beliefs that animals shouldn't be subject to maskless
       spectators, tourists, children and that animals have certain
       rights to space and privacy and natural settings. I believe
       these animals are being endangered by their handlers insofar as
       they are not being fully protected from covid nor is it healthy
       to have countless fingers feeding animals all for a camera shot
       and a Kodak moment by a bunch of maskless spectators. FACT:
       Little kids put their fingers in their own noses and mouths and
       its just ridiculous no hand sanitizers, gloves , masks , goggles
       or responsible animal husbandry is going on in these zoo photo
       and video shots when we've got an animal pandemic called bird
       flu and covid going on throughout all over the world all sorts
       of flocks and herds of animals and on farms too ...yeah the
       public should be concerned, alright!. The public should be
       ashamed of themselves over at the petting zoo!
       These diseases are spread by saliva..
       Hey Zoo handler,
       tell the tourists, children , and  your customers to keep their
       dirty fingers off the giraffe tongue for the sake of hygiene!
       Diseases have been known to be spread by saliva and dirty
       fingers and surfaces! Duh! Animals lovers and Zoo people know
       that zoos have some of the last of our endangered species in
       their care it would be advisable to update yourselves with the
       latest findings and research about 'zoonotic' diseases that are
       current and up to date. Please research the latest challenges
       and concerns the poultry and dairy farmer are facing with bird
       flu and research how many animals from zoos are getting sick
       with bird flu and learn to protect these magnificent creatures
       from the latest zoonotic diseases. look up the word zoonosis and
       learn more about bird flu.

       Bird flu detected at Suffolk’s oldest and last large commercial
       duck farm. Suffolk health officials say the farm houses more
       than 100,000 birds.
       This is not good and in a populated area they can say the risk
       to humans is low all they want, this is not good at all.
