Is the bird flu fake?

A possibility is not a definite. Why should any rational person believe that an apparently healthy chicken is sick?

Paranoia is not a rational basis.

Because you can't stop the spread of a disease by killing healthy chickens.

I think that there would be A LOT less dead chickens.
"Because you can't stop the spread of a disease by killing healthy chickens."

Why do you believe the healthy chickens are being killed? Do you think that was the first option? Do you think NOBODY has thought to try or tried "just removing the sick chickens" only to find out it doesn't work with highly contagious viruses.

Is that really what you believe?
 
Why should any rational person believe that a bird is sick if it is behaving in a typical manner and it isn't displaying any symptoms of illness?

Why should any rational person believe that possibilities are definites?
Again, you believe "just removing the sick chickens" hasn't been tried and found to not work? You think that you, far-right conspiracy theorist, have the key to open a lock that nobody has been able to open. Do I have that right?
 
It is a fact that a) H5N1 is extremely deadly for chickens and other poultry. It's also a fact that chickens can and will be infected before they appear sick. It's also a fact that some number of them will spread the virus to other chickens before they appear sick.
Mindless chanting.
So, your plan, separating the obviously sick chickens from the rest, is going allow the virus to spread uncontrollably through the flock and increase the risk of it spreading to all humans around the flock.

That's really your plan?
Yes. Under my plan, every single chicken has a chance to live. Under your plan, every single chicken dies.
 
Ok. Clearly you're doing your usual moronic trolling. We both know that sick chickens will look healthy and those sick chickens will spread the disease to other chickens and possibly humans before they look sick.

So, when you want to stop acting like a retard, let me know.
It's obvious that you've now been reduced to mindless chanting and insults.
 
"Again... separate the sick chicken from the other chickens.'

It is a fact that a) H5N1 is extremely deadly for chickens and other poultry.
Not a fact. Learn what 'fact' means.
It's also a fact that chickens can and will be infected before they appear sick. It's also a fact that some number of them will spread the virus to other chickens before they appear sick.
You have no idea what a sick bird looks like or what a healthy bird looks like.
So, your plan, separating the obviously sick chickens from the rest, is going allow the virus to spread uncontrollably through the flock and increase the risk of it spreading to all humans around the flock.
I'm pretty much the only human around my flock.
That's really your plan?
RQAA.
 
Ok. Clearly you're doing your usual moronic trolling.
You just lost the argument.
We both know that sick chickens will look healthy and those sick chickens will spread the disease to other chickens and possibly humans before they look sick.
You don't know the difference between a sick bird and a healthy bird.
So, when you want to stop acting like a retard, let me know.
Mantra 1a. Lame.

Disregard. You've already proven that the cheese has slid off your cracker.

The position of the Cult is to needlessly slaughter over a hundred million chickens so that they can point their fingers and say: "SEE! Trump hasn't lowered prices! I mean, just look at the price of eggs (and ONLY eggs)!"

It's my fault, from the start, for expecting reason from the unreasonable.
 
"Because you can't stop the spread of a disease by killing healthy chickens."

Why do you believe the healthy chickens are being killed?
Because YOU have spent this entire exchange advocating for killing all healthy chickens around the sick chicken in order to "stop the spread". You've even said, and I quote, "that is literally the basis for killing all of the chickens around the sick one." (post #161)

In addition to being reduced to mindless chanting and insults, you've now also been reduced to denying your own arguments in an attempt to gaslight me.

Plenty of people do it with varying degrees of success. It sure beats the heck out of killing all the chickens from the outset.

He seems to think there is some extensive 'epidemic' of some kind. It's his paranoia.

I know several chicken farmers around the area and NONE of them have a single infected bird (except one, which caught a cold. The bird was isolated and it recovered on it's own, and has now rejoined the flock).


If you look back a bit, someone posted average egg prices by year. Note the spike that occurs each winter, and a return to normalcy each spring and summer.

This isn't bird flu. It's commodity fraud...the kind of thing that made Soros rich.

The truth can sting sometimes, eh?

I just can't believe the brilliance of the federal government. As part of their master plan to intentionally and unnecessarily increase egg prices, just to make Trump look bad (gfm7175), they're pretending that bird flu is spreading (Into the Night) and killing ducks, too.

I mean, they are geniuses, right? (derp derp derp)

Aquebogue duck farm facing bird flu outbreak, euthanizing 99,000 ducks

 
@gfm7175 @Into the Night

Man, someone should have told this farm owner to just "notice the sick hen" and separated it from the rest. He could have saved his flock...AmIright? (derp derp derp)

The owners first noticed that 30 of them died, but that happened as temperatures dropped aggressively in the area, so they thought it was just environmental.

"It was right when the temperate started changing so we were like maybe it's environmental, then next day hundreds were gone, and we're like, this is something," owner Marty Thomas said


Bird flu strikes chicken farm in Matteson: 'A pretty devastating blow'

MATTESON, Ill. (WLS) -- The first known outbreak of bird flu at a farm in Illinois this year has been reported in the south suburbs.

It's a devastating blow to "Kakadoodle" in Matteson, and they will now have to operate in a different way over the next 150 days. The owners told ABC7 it's been a whirlwind of a week dealing with the setback.
