Created and executive produced by Ben Bocquelet, The Wonderfully Weird World of Gumball is a quarter-hour animated comedy series that blends an eclectic mix of media styles – including 2D & 3D animation, CGI, puppetry, photorealism and live action – into a wildly imaginative world defined by its vibrant visual style and sharp meta humour.

Ahead of this premiere, Cartoon Network will be celebrating all things Gumball over the summer by airing every episode ever of The Amazing World of Gumball. Starting in July, Cartoon Network audiences can find the joy in the dysfunction of the Watterson family – consisting of Gumball, the dynamic and optimistic 12-year-old, his right-hand man, younger brother, and conscience, Darwin, the loveable stay-at-home Dad, Richard, the tireless overworked and yet resilient mum Nicole, and little sister and the smartest of the bunch Anais. The Amazing World of Gumball is famed for its humorous depictions of the imperfect realities of growing up where everything ordinary becomes extraordinary. The animation was created in 2011 when Ben Bocquelet decided to take some rejected characters he had created for commercials and put them together in one series set inside of a school!

Nevada Resident Infected with New Strain of Bird Flu: 'We're Gonna Have Another Influenza Pandemic'
The Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) has confirmed that a Nevada resident has been infected with a new strain of the bird flu. On Feb. 10, the Central Nevada Health District (CNHD) reported a case of the bird flu (highly pathogenic avian influenza, HPAI) in a worker who had exposure to infected dairy cattle at a farm in Churchill County. Health officials said the dairy worker's illness was mild, they were not hospitalized and have since recovered. The patient reportedly had the D1.1 strain of bird flu, differing from the B3.13, which is the strain of the virus that has resulted in the majority of human infections in the United States. This new strain was first confirmed in Nevada cattle on Jan. 31 after the virus was detected in milk collected for monitoring purposes in December. The latest development raises concerns about whether dairy cows may be more susceptible to the bird flu, which would increase the risk of cow-to-human transmission. 'Some experts do fear that it could mark a new chapter in the outbreak or that bird flu may become endemic in the U.S.,' Andrea Garcia — vice president of science, medicine and public health at the American Medical Association — said during a news brief on Feb. 10. 'This is something we are continuing to very closely follow.'

'That's a big deal,' Michael Osterholm — infectious disease expert and director of the Center for Infectious Disease Research and Policy at the University of Minnesota — told NBC of the virus being found in more cows. 'We're gonna have another influenza pandemic, and when it happens, we shouldn't be surprised,' he added. However, the CDC and CNHD said the public health risk for the general public remains low, while noting that 'people who work with birds, poultry or cows, or have recreational exposure to them, are at higher risk.' Those at greater risk are encouraged to avoid touching sick or dead animals, and ensure that they are not eating uncooked or undercooked food. Cooking poultry and eggs to an internal temperature of 165˚F kills bacteria and viruses, according to the CDC. Last Month, health officials announced the first death in the United States linked to the bird flu. The Louisiana Department of Health confirmed on Jan. 6 that a 65-year-old man died from the virus after exposure to 'a combination of a non-commercial backyard flock and wild birds.' The World Health Organization previously called the current outbreak a 'significant public health concern.' However, the agency does not currently list the bird flu outbreak as a global health emergency. Read the original article on People
