    As someone who doesn’t live in the US, how has this got so out of hand? Are there not vaccinations, birds being kept indoors/segregated to stop the spread? It’s here in the UK too but it’s not tearing through the country like this.

      We call it factory farming, which is different than ranching. You pack thousands of chickens into a giant warehouse together.

      Vaccines don’t do much in an environment like that. And the federal government is being gutted by Nazis currently so that doesn’t help.
