Drinking “raw milk” puts everyone at risk and should be illegal.
It’s mostly illegal to sell it. I think just for processing/cooking (cheesemaking) is it legally sold for. But idiots have no qualms about breaking the law by lying.
Not in Oklahoma they fought hard to make it legal here. Remember the fight over it years ago.
…why?
It’s mostly legal. It’s legal to sell raw milk in 29 states, though most have some regulation around it.

How so?
They’re are essentially trying to catch the disease and spread it via misunderstood science. Their stupidity puts us all at risk. It’s the same reason as any other law - stupidity and ignorance is not an excuse to fuck over the rest of us.
Does the article not explain this?
Where’s Upton Sinclair when you need him?
Maybe make it legal only if consumed directly from the teat?
Drinking cows milk is exploitative and should be illegal
I’m petty sure a lump of moldy cheese has better critical thinking skills than these nuggets
Didn’t we just confirm the first animal-to-human transmission of H5N1?
It’s happened a handful of times around the world, passing from livestock to human. It hasn’t yet ever passed from human to human, fortunately, but contact with infected livestock (or, potentially, drinking infected milk) is how a virus might evolve to better infect humans.
The folks behind The Great Barrington Declaration who believed in herd immunity for COVID now get to reap what they sow.
Sounds like natural selection
If only this would remain within the idiot population. The increased risk of them getting infected and allowing the virus to mutate in a way that makes it more virulent/transmissible in humans is bad for everyone.
It may be but we will all pay the price. It’s jumped from Avians to Mammals (cows) it probably has jumped to cats, and in one case may have jumped to humans already.
Babe wake up, the new stupid thing has dropped
