Sadly, we still default to granting more respect to men than women. 8 studies: we're >2x as likely to call male politicians, athletes, teachers, and authors by their last names. It matters: surnames signal higher status. It's long past time to use consistent standards.

Once again, donโ€™t drink raw milk. Ingestion is a known infection route for influenza virus, but pasteurization inactivates H5N1.
FDA finds that 15% of 275 raw milk samples from four states w/bird flu contain infectious virus. Pasteurization killed the viruses. Study suggests that cows w/subclinical infections still shed virus in their milk. fda.gov/media/179708/downloaโ€ฆ
