H5N1 is still not a human virus. But it already knows how to enter, replicate, and test limits in the human respiratory tract. Ignoring this trajectory repeats well-known pandemic mistakes.

🦠 Powassan virus: rare but dangerous — encephalitis, neurological damage, ~10% fatality.
Its rarity makes it hard to study (few cases, BSL-3 needs).
A reminder to fund research before the next outbreak.
