Dr. Lena Wen Pushes Fear Over H5n1 Bird Flu

We’ve all heard the expression, “Better quit while you’re ahead.” This has two meanings. First, it could mean to stop when you are on top of making a point or being successful. Second, it could mean to stop digging that hole you made for yourself before it gets deeper – trying to win a dispute on poor/no facts and strawman rationale.

The other we are all familiar with is, “People who do not learn from history are doomed to repeat it.” Likewise, this has two meanings. We learn from history to keep from making mistakes today that occurred in the past. We also learn from history what actions worked and could possibly be repeated to achieve a positive result.

Unfortunately, too many in the political and “scientific” world do not take counsel from history and do not know to quit while they are ahead. One such individual is Dr. Leana Wen. If you were paying attention during the CONvid-1984 planned scam-demic, you will remember Dr. Wen as a proponent of punishing those who refused to follow unscientific unproven non-pharmaceutical measures dictated by Birx et.al. and those who refused to roll up their sleeve for the mRNA gene therapy DNA-altering bioweapon CONvid-1984 shot. Now, Dr. Wen is urging the Biden administration to push the Food and Drug Administration (FDA) to “authorize” the “bird flu vaccine”.

A leading public health figure has called on the Biden administration to authorize a bird flu vaccine and ramp up testing for the virus across the U.S.

During a Dec. 29, 2024, interview on CBS News’ “Face the Nation,” Dr. Leana Wen, the former commissioner of the Baltimore City Health Department and a professor of public health at George Washington University, accused the outgoing Biden administration of not doing enough to address the bird flu outbreak.

“I feel like we should have learned our lesson from COVID that just because we aren’t testing, it doesn’t mean that the virus isn’t there. It just means that we aren’t looking for it. We should be having rapid tests, home tests, available to all farm workers, to their families, for the clinicians taking care of them,” Wen said.

There have been 66 confirmed bird flu cases in the U.S., all but one of which caused only mild illness. The first severe human infection in the U.S. was recorded on Dec. 18, in a Louisiana man over the age of 65 who was exposed to a backyard flock, NBC News reported. According to The New York Times, bird flu samples from the patient revealed “concerning” mutations of the virus.

During her appearance on “Face the Nation,” Wen criticized the lack of availability of a bird flu vaccine.

“There actually is a vaccine developed already against H5N1. The Biden administration has contracted with manufacturers to make almost 5 million doses of the vaccine. However, they have not asked the FDA [U.S. Food and Drug Administration] to authorize the vaccine,” Wen said.

She suggested the Biden administration take quick action to approve the vaccine before the Trump administration takes office later this month.

“They could get this authorized now, and also get the vaccine out … to farm workers and to vulnerable people. I think that’s the right approach, because we don’t know what the Trump administration is going to be doing around bird flu,” Wen said.

Wen suggested the Trump administration would seek additional evidence of the vaccine’s effectiveness before authorizing it.

“I don’t want to wait for the Trump administration to potentially hold up the vaccines saying that they want more evidence. Look, evidence is always good and facts are always good. New research is always good. But you also have to weigh that against a potential catastrophe, as we could be having for bird flu, the way that we had for COVID,” Wen said.

This woman is incapable of learning from the past and definitely will not stop while she is ahead. Wen, after the CONvid-1984 debacle, should have slithered back from whence she came and remained there. But, here she is clamoring for the same playbook with the “bird flu” that was implemented with the CONvid-1984. Wen is pushing fear and rushed approval of an unapproved vaccine per Dr. Peter McCullough.

Cardiologist Dr. Peter McCullough told The Defender that Wen “is following the COVID-19 playbook pushing fear and rushed approval of unsafe vaccines.”

“Our farm, dairy and poultry workers should be outfitted with nasal/throat sprays, gargles and contagion kits if there are baseline risk factors for severe disease,” McCullough said. “Sadly, the poultry-to-human transmission is occurring when the workers are ordered to cull or mass-kill the chickens.”

Wen previously was an outspoken advocate of COVID-19 vaccines and restrictions.

In a July 2021 NPR interview, she expressed her hope that the Biden administration “at this point really gets behind vaccine mandates,” adding that the government “ended masking requirements too abruptly and prematurely.”

In March 2023, Wen told CNN that COVID-19 “misinformation” led to declining public trust in medical science. As recently as September 2024, Wen advised the public to get COVID-19 boosters.

Wen outed herself as a proponent of eradicating individual God-given unalienable rights. She supported government tyranny of mandating injections and non-pharmaceutical interventions that were proven to be inconsequential and not based in science. While she stated in 2023 that COVID-19 misinformation led to a decline in public trust in medical science, she failed to address where that misinformation originated – from the government, shill scientists like herself, the pharmaceutical industry, and Operation Mockingbird Media. Despite all the injuries and deaths caused by the mRNA gene therapy DNA-altering bioweapon CONvid-1984 shot, Wen still advised the public to get the bioweapon boosters. You can certainly search the internet to find articles indicating Wen was a supporter of strict draconian measures. She was the one who made the statement, “If everything is reopened, how are we going to incentivize people to actually get the vaccine?”

Not surprisingly, Wen is echoing the same sentiments regarding “bird flu” as the architect of draconian measures, Dr. Deborah Birx.

Wen’s remarks mirrored those of other public health experts. Dr. Deborah Birx, the White House coronavirus response coordinator under then-President Donald Trump, told CNN last week, “We kind of have our head in the sand about how widespread this is from the zoonotic standpoint, from the animal-to-human standpoint.”

For what it’s worth, the Centers for Disease Control (CDC) has indicated there is a low risk to humans from “bird flu”; however, the National Institute of Health (NIH) has called for more action to combat this “virus”. Which is it? If it’s low risk to humans, why is more action needed to combat it? It sounds eerily similar to what happened during the CONvid-1984 planned scam-demic – it was low risk (no more deadly than seasonal flu) until it wasn’t per “health experts” at the government. There have been no reports of human-to-human transmission (can’t transmit what doesn’t exist) yet Gavin Newsome declared a state of emergency in California for “bird flu” on the heels of a man in Louisiana supposedly contracting a severe case of “bird flu” from his backyard flock.

Currently, the only available “vaccine” for “bird flu” is AUDENZ made by CSL Seqirus. It would behoove everyone to read the package insert referenced on the FDA website. AUDENZ will be covered in-depth in another article. For brevity, epidemiologist Nicholas Hulscher reported to the Defender that this “bird flu vaccine that’s been developed poses a greater risk to the public than the virus itself.”

Wen could not stop herself from spreading the fear on Face The Nation.

“Face the Nation” asked Wen if the current bird flu outbreak is “worrisome,” and she described the latest cases as “one more sign that the drum beat of bird flu coming closer to humans is becoming a major threat.”

“It hasn’t been a major issue in humans, because while it spreads among birds, it hasn’t really spread among mammals. But now there is this mutation, and there’s another concern now … which is that we’re in flu season, and it’s possible that a single person could have bird flu and seasonal flu at the same time,” Wen said.

According to Wen, “The viruses could exchange genes. You could develop a new hybrid virus, and if you now have a virus that’s more contagious and causes more severe disease, that’s when it becomes a major threat to humankind.”

Wen said that, in prior bird flu outbreaks, the mortality was 52%, arguing that while cases during the current outbreak have been “mild,” this could change “when bird flu affects more vulnerable individuals.” [Where is her evidence of 52% mortality in prior outbreaks? Notice the qualifier of “vulnerable individuals” without identifying what is meant by vulnerable.]

Fortunately, many disagree with the fear-mongering Wen.

“There are no reports of person-to-person transmission and no signs that the virus has changed to spread more easily among humans,” the Daily Mail reported.

MedPageToday on Tuesday reported that a 13-year-old Canadian girl — with a history of asthma and a body mass index over 35 — who was hospitalized in critical condition after bird flu infection has recovered.

A Dec. 31 letter in The New England Journal of Medicine (NEJM) raised concerns about a mutated form of the virus found in the girl. But a peer-reviewed article that appeared the same day in the NEJM stated that bird flu cases in the current outbreak were found to generally cause “mild illness, mostly conjunctivitis, of short duration.”

“The best course of action is to drop PCR testing, quarantines, culling and vaccines and allow the herds to fully develop natural immunity which has occurred for decades with this illness,” McCullough said. “Because this is a very mild human infection with no human-to-human transmission, we can take practical steps to prevent and handle the infection as the outbreak naturally burns out.”

Apparently, Dr. Leana Wen doesn’t know how to check the FDA website for vaccines licensed for use in the united States. The FDA website indicates there are four H5N1 (“bird flu”) vaccines available for use in the US – one is for national stockpile, one does not have a trade name, AUBENZ is approved and so is AREPANRIX. Package inserts are available for all four. AREPANRIX will also be covered in another article. At this point, no one should trust any vaccine product on the market for any illness or disease.

Dr. Wen is clamoring to be relevant to the “bird flu” health scare. But, the public should be much more aware of the Wen tactics since the CONvid-1984 planned scam-demic. Stopping the never been proven to exist H5N1 (“bird flu”) requires very little management – turn off your TV and stop listening to fear-mongering wingnuts like Dr. Wen. Take a look around you. You will see there isn’t a problem at all. Listening to Wen will have the same people fearful of the CONvid-1984 clothed in fear again about “bird flu”. Don’t be surprised if you see face diapers appearing, six feet social distancing Gestapo roaming the stores, quarantine proponents hold up in the home forts, and the vaccine cult rushing to get stabbed with a jab. Even after all those measures have been debunked over and over again to stop the spread and transmission of anything, some can’t help themselves. Just remember, you can’t fix stupid.
