Trump's budget cuts have resulted in US Food & Drug Admin cancelling its quality/safety testing of milk and milk products. So if you are outside of US and not already boycotting US milk etc. because of some earlier Trump clusterf**k, the cancelled testing program should give you all the incentive you need.

Yes of course, on a personal level.
On a population threat level, this is an increase in disease, IS an increase in threat. People, children WILL GET SICK.
"#US #FDA suspends #milk quality tests amid workforce cuts"
Now, this may worry some of you
But there's no need to worry
Because the #USA govt is also not reporting #disease outbreaks anymore
So you can relax:
When you're deathly ill from Listeria, it won't bother anyone!
And since they will no longer test cows for #birdFlu, there will be no evidence of it. Why waste your money on something there is no evidence of?
This is great!

No animal, without exception, is made to drink another animals #milk. Why would humans be an exception?
Unfortunately, parent pumping their kids full with cow milk. And then they get many different kind of diseases like #Neurodermatitis.
It's heartbreaking to see a 3 yo with neurodermatitis. And everyone is entirely ignorant that it could be caused by milk.

TIL: Cardboard / gable top milk cartons are lined with... plastic. But they block ultraviolet light
Ultraviolet light can penetrate clear glass bottles (PDF) and HDPE (PDF) plastic bottles.

A pilot study found that acidification of raw whole milk (with citric acid) to a pH of 4.1-4.2 for 6 hours resulted in complete inactivation of the bird flu (H5N1) virus.
There was an indication that the effectiveness of inactivation may be dependent on fat content of the milk.
These pH levels are within the range resulting from fermentation (4.0-4.5).
