“What we need to have happening right now is — [the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC)] working closely with state and local health departments and agricultural departments to do good monitoring about what’s going on in wild bird populations [and] in cattle,” Jackson said. “Collecting information about human cases, as well, and then disseminating that information to the broader community.”
It’s basic supply and demand — each time bird flu is traced to any bird, the entire flock has to be killed, which effectively minimizes the country’s poultry supply and therefore shoots those egg prices up.

In a recent Radio Iowa interview, Reynolds said figuring out how to best mitigate transmission of the virus is key. “Think about it going from birds to hogs,” Reynolds said.”I mean just this past year it went to dairy. It’s scary the impact it could have not only on the food supply chain, but just to people as well.”
Not a peep from Kimmi.
Iowa fatmers get not much more than handwringing and pearl clutching from Kimmi.
