Are you people the products of industrial-strength
in-breeding? Did you not complete the 2nd grade? You prove to
me, and the American public in general, that crows are
carriers and transmitters of WNV. You made the statement, so
now you have to prove it. You can't, and you know you can't.
Even if they had the capability to do so, and they don't, they
die before they can transmit it to any other organism. Crows,
and other corvids, are more susceptible to the virus and have
much less chance of surviving it than most other
species/genera. |

Well,
to test your accusation about our education, we went out and
asked a 2nd grader to look up the “West Nile Virus” on the
web and here is what he found:
“ U.S.
Center for Disease Control” web site 12/23/02
“The principle route of
human infection with West Nile virus is through the bite of
an infected mosquito. Mosquitoes become infected when they
feed on infected birds , which may circulate the virus in
their blood for a few days. During subsequent blood meals,
the virus may be injected into humans and animals, where it
can multiply and possibly cause illness.”
Wow, that was hard, wasn’t
it? I think that pretty much covers the proof that you were
looking for, at least to the satisfaction of the American
Public. I have a feeling that nothing we could produce will
ever change your clouded mind on this subject, even if a
mosquito carrying the virus from an infected crow came down
and bit you on the “arse”. So enjoy that happy place in your
mind where Mother Nature is always fair and all animals are
our friends. And next time, try asking the Kindergartener
next door to help you with some research before you spout
off. Might help with your case of “Industrial-strength
ignorance”. |
