State fairs are known for Ferris wheels, butter sculptures & the biggest pig in the state. They can also be virus mixing grounds. That’s of particular concern, as bird flu infections have been confirmed in cows🐄 for the 1st time ever via Benjamin Thorp shorturl.at/S6pHh

🐄State fairs in the time of bird flu🐄: One of the things ppl bring up about Covid-19 are the animal markets in China, with different animals & species interacting with each other. Similar things happen at state fairs in the U.S., said Amesh Adalja shorturl.at/S6pHh

State fair in the time of bird flu: It's not keeping fairgoers from lining up in front of cattle barns. 🐄 “I haven’t heard anybody mention [bird flu] except for you,” Mel Ventimiglia told Side Effects. “Hopefully, I forget about it pretty quickly.” shorturl.at/S6pHh

Truancy gets lots of attention lately but there's little on ground reporting about why students miss school and legal enforcement. So Dylan Peers McCoy spent a day with an Indiana truancy investigator and talked to families he visited. Superb audio story --> wfyi.org/news/articles/…

Wheelies look fun, but they're a serious skill for kids in wheelchairs. Great to see Elizabeth Gabriel’s reporting on a unique Indiana program for children with disabilities on NPR. npr.org/2024/09/02/g-s…

Nine months have passed since I last spoke with Dr. Abukhedeir, and since he’s left Gaza. His voice has changed. He tells me he’s “living but not alive”. npr.org/sections/goats…
