Poultry farms either need to vaccinate their chicks or develop poultry that's resistant to bird flu because it's become too endemic in the wild bird population.
No one is trying to comfort you. We simply have to deal with reality.
Every year a percentage of wild birds die of avian flu, but we don't attempt to exterminate all wild birds to deal with the pathogen like we do with domestic poultry.
If many people refuse to eat vaccinated chicken or their eggs won't bother me at all.
Cattle have been vaccinate for quite some time, which is probably why you refuse to eat beef:
Long-acting viral vaccine that includes at least IBR and BVD, and may include parainfluenza-3 virus (PI3) and bovine respiratory syncytial virus (BRSV)
Long-acting campylobacter fetus (vibrio)/leptospirosis (lepto) vaccine
Dewormer
7-way clostridial booster (optional)
Due to their short life-span poultry breeders have resisted adding the expense of vaccination, but at some point it's going to look absolutely cheap. A few birds might get sick and some might even die as they already do from other causes. But vaccination eliminate the need to cull entire flocks.
We've run out of other people's Social Security taxes needed to subsidize our low income tax rates.
