Amid hostility toward its allies, tariffs, and direct threats to Canada and Denmark over territory, the US is now begging other countries to provide US-ians with eggs.
The US Department of Agriculture is reaching out to other nations in a bid to lower egg prices with bird flu decimating US producton. Convicted felon Trump's insane and counter-productive trade policies and belligerence aren't helping matters.

If we start vaccinating chickens, that will immediately reduce the price of eggs because all the anti-vaxxers won’t trust them, freeing up the supply for those of us living in a science base world.

All 3 eaglets are doing well. Mom Jackie is covered in snow, sheltering those sweet babies with her 7000+ waterproof feathers.

The 2 Fort Meyers eaglets died in January after consuming an infected bird that had been fed to them by their parent eagle. The autopsy showed that they were killed by avian flu. Their parents are currently asymptomatic but being closely monitored. For the chicks, their death came after signs of fatigue & seizures. 🌸

An eagle is covered in snow in the center of a large nest bowl, also blanketed in snow. The distance is white with fog and snow, hiding the lake from view.

Don't worry, Trump & his team are ON IT!

"Scientists are sounding alarms about a genetic mutation that was recently ID'd in 4 dairy cow herds, nearly year after H5N1 #BirdFlu 1st reported in TX dairy cattle.

..researchers have dreaded finding bc it is assoc w increased mammal-to-mammal transmission & disease severity.

Mutation appeared in 1st human case. “Finding the same mutation in cows is significant,” an infectious disease expert said"

The #Netherlands are starting a pilot to vaccinate chicken and other poultry against the #AvianFlu #BirdFlu. The pilot will run until 2027 and can be scaled up fast if needed. Let’s hope the vaccine works.

www.rijksoverheid.nlStart pilot vaccineren pluimvee tegen vogelgriepDe pilot voor de vaccinatie van pluimvee tegen vogelgriep is van start gegaan. Na een succesvolle 1e fase van de veldproef kan deze belangrijke stap nu worden gezet. Minister Femke Wiersma (LVVN) en de pluimveesector werken samen om stapsgewijs op verantwoorde wijze grootschalige vaccinatie mogelijk te maken. Vaccinatie speelt een belangrijke rol in het aanzienlijk verkleinen van de kans op vogelgriepuitbraken bij pluimvee, wat bijdraagt aan een betere bescherming van zowel dier- als volksgezondheid.
