Joel Sweeney+FollowUSDA’s Bird Flu Vaccine DramaThe USDA might finally greenlight a bird flu vaccine for poultry, but it’s causing major drama between egg and chicken producers. Egg farmers are desperate for protection after losing millions of hens (and seeing egg prices skyrocket), but chicken meat companies worry a vaccine could kill exports if trading partners freak out. The plan? Vaccinate chicks, test flocks, and hope trading partners don’t ban U.S. poultry. Decision expected in July—this could seriously shake up your breakfast! #BirdFlu #USDA #Poultry #Health #BodyHealth10Share
