With a pandemic, what is the safest store of value? Forget appreciation, I just want something stable. I agree this would throw a spanner into the energy equities.

Could/would USD gain? If USD gains, could gold gain even more? Who knows?

The latest out of Vietnam is over 3000 ducks dying suddenly

The deaths are in a province with lab confirmed H5N1 bird flu, but media reports indicate that the ducks have leg paralysis and don't have bird flu symptoms.

However, H5N1 has been shown to infected brains of lab mice and cause hind leg paralysis.

Lab results have not been reported.
