It's hard to get info on how worried to be about h5n1, so here's my summary:
- *Current* risk of *you* getting h5n1: extremely low, unless you are consuming raw milk products or have backyard chickens/poultry or work in meat/dairy
- Risk of h5n1 turning into a nightmare pandemic *soon*: concerning, but especially because if it happens, it could be much, *much* worse than covid
