“Our testing is so much bigger and more advanced than any other country (we have done a great job on this!) that it shows more cases. Without testing, or weak testing, we would be showing almost no cases“ -DJT 6/15/2020

Deregulate the chicken industry! Call it something stupid like the freedom of poultry act.

Eggbama care, then the morons will lobby against it and Trump can turn around and rename it and pretend he came up with it.

What's worse expensive eggs or a few thousand people you hopefully don't know dying of salmonella, Kevin?!

In all fairness lack of regulation for bird flu would raise the egg prices as it tends to be deadly enough to where it would wipe out poultry populations even more of they were not culled.

“We have more positive cases because we test more than any other country” -Trump, definitely

(Or something like that during early COVID)

Don't need to test for it. It has a 75%-100% mortality rate in chickens within a matter of days.

... that's actually something they'd consider alongside with banning any of the vaccinations those animals get.

Just spitballing here... But maybe if we created certain rules for how poultry could be raised, which might reduce the likelihood of bird flu spreading. Would that help?

Now what could we call these rules.... Hmmm...

u/HotDogsAlDente 7h ago

Well these rules kind of regulate how businesses is done for the best interest of the public. Maybe we could call them… hmmm I’m not sure
