Dear Readers,
As we move through the year 2024, it’s hard not to feel a certain sense of repetition. The parallels between the current state of affairs and the tumultuous events of 2020 appear to be more than mere coincidence. News headlines make us wonder if we are navigating new challenges or simply revisiting a familiar chapter in history. While the specifics may differ, the essence of these experiences feels hauntingly similar.
So, does anybody feel like 2024…is like reliving 2020?
2020 vs 2024
Let’s look at some major things from 2020 to keep in mind as we move through 2024.
It all started with the Super Bowl.
The 2024 Super Bowl featured the same matchup as 2020 - the Kansas City Chiefs vs the San Francisco 49ers, with the Chiefs winning again.

The most recent outbreak of bird flu was in 2020. However, In 2024, the virus was detected in cattle herds across four U.S. states, marking the first time the H5N1 strain has infected cattle.
The 2020 outbreak was considered an "animal pandemic" by the World Health Organization due to its unprecedented spread across multiple animal species worldwide.
‘Experts’ warn the virus could potentially mutate to spread more easily among humans, posing a severe pandemic threat if its high fatality rate is maintained.
The outbreak has caused devastating losses for the poultry industry and impacted international trade, with healthy birds often culled to contain the spread. (Source)
While they admit the current human risk is low, they still use it as an excuse to murder animals and impact the food supply. They could also weaponize the potential threat to appear legitimate.
