Many of the spring's die-hard fans are part of the so-called health freedom movement, which opposes government public health interventions, including vaccine mandates, pasteurized milk and fluoridated water.
You had to convince people to drink pasteurized milk, you had to convince the dairy industry to make pasteurized milk, and that took a whole other cast of characters.
And the reason it wasn't infectious is because the milk was pasteurized, and we've been pasteurizing milk for a long time, and we do it because it's a very effective way of killing pathogens.
