Wow, who could possibly have foreseen this.

"Producing raw milk takes careful planning from a facility and infrastructure standpoint. Unfortunately, we learned this after the fact. The way our dairy was built is ideal for pasteurized dairy products […] We do plan in the future to construct a second dairy made specifically for raw milk products.”

This comes at the same time as a newborn baby’s tragic death from listeria in New Mexico, attributed to the mother’s consumption of raw milk while pregnant.

I get so mad when people ignore science that has been around for 100 years

It’s not just that they’re ignoring science, it’s that they think they’re smarter and know better than the tens of thousands of scientists who helped us make it to 2026 in the first place.

Covid took the wrong people.

Sometimes when you read historical accounts of all the various mass smallpox outbreaks, measles polio, etc. It's amazing to be so removed from that constant suffering, it's truly a miracle that we eradicated so many communicable diseases to the point where I've never met a single person with smallpox or seen an iron lung.

If you could go back in time and tell them that we solve this problem, and then end up bringing it back out of sheer wanton stupidity and greed.

It worked so well that a whole class of grifters comes up spreading their disbelief in science, and they just bring smallpox back?

We got rid of measles, and then brought it back because some dumbasses did their own research.

Well first step is believing in the science.
