Just wondering what bug the government released.
I don't like the symptomology!!!
"Duck deaths attributed to bacteria
Officials are trying to determine the cause of death of dozens of ducks in the Merrimack River in downtown Lowell. When several dead ducks were discovered along the Riverwalk earlier this summer, some people thought youths were killing the birds with rocks. But after about 25 dead ducks were pulled from the river over the weekend, David Redding, chief ranger at Lowell National Historical Park, said he thinks that avian botulism bacteria are to blame. Health Director Frank Singleton says hot weather and heavy rain flush nutrients into the river, robbing the water of oxygen and allowing the bacteria to flourish. The bacteria attack the birds' nervous system, causing the ducks to drown. There is no risk to humans (AP)."
How do they know?
If "bird flu" can "mutate," then WTF?
