========================
“Almost 1.8 million farmed and captive birds have been culled in the past three months because of the spread of avian flu across the UK, the BBC has learned.
There have been 33 outbreaks of the virus on farms and, on Wednesday, the government said bird-keepers in five more English counties would have to house flocks indoors from Sunday.
The risk to humans remains low, with chicken and eggs safe to eat if properly cooked, but there are concerns about the impact bird flu is having on farmers’ mental health.
The government said it had acted quickly to cull all poultry on infected premises “to protect Britain’s food security”, but recognised the devastating impact it was having.”
The US has slaughtered 100 million birds making $1 billion for the slaughterers, who care nothing for the suffering of the animals. Eggs are now £12 ($15) a dozen. Animal pandemics make fortunes for the friends of the politicians, same as the human versions do with PPE, vaccines and the rest. They are all aiming at depopulating the planet.
