Well, just that this is such an interesting time in American politics. And I think it would be wonderful if RFK Jr. could make the food supply healthier. I just think that in order to do that, he's going to have to take on the food industry. And I don't think Trump has a... of taking on corporations of any kind. So we'll see. Maybe he'll get them to volunteer.

I think the moment is particularly alarming because... We have seen this infiltrate our food supply and things that we take for granted, like milk, like eggs, in a way that just hadn't been really apparent to the average consumer before this. And we've seen more people getting infected. And there were hopes that when there was a spillover from wild birds into dairy cattle—

That would kind of be contained. It would burn out. And that hasn't happened. We continue to see it spreading in cattle. And scientists continue to track ways in which this could become more dangerous. And I think it just has kind of reached a critical mass of concern right now.

And if I can point to something that Marion brought up, this idea that we don't necessarily know what's going on and don't want to think about it. We saw this last year when we realized, oh yeah, there's viral material from bird flu on our store shelves all over the country.

And then, of course, there was a huge effort to test all of this and determine, okay, it's pasteurized, it's safe, you're not going to get infected from milk being sold on retail stores. But It was a moment of, oh, wow, yeah, I'm drinking something that has remnants of bird flu in it. And I don't know how long that stayed in people's minds.

Well, it's been incredibly challenging bridging these two areas of public health, the human side and the animal side. You see USDA does all the animal testing and handles that stuff. Then you have CDC and other folks looking for infections in humans. And, you know, there's limited authority on the human side.
