When was it decided to kill all the birds who might just recover and be more immune anyway? And that’s even if they were infected in the first place, as they’re using the PCR test which can be spun up to positive for anything. So this is just one of many attacks on the food supply as well as meant to impoverish more people, as over half the population lives paycheck to paycheck and can’t absorb more inflation. And this diverts more of their wages to the OCGFC in high interest payments on their credit cards pushing them to consume even more cheap and unhealthy processed food from their other megacorps. So it’s just another scam and psyop.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

An ongoing and devastating avian influenza outbreak has severely dented the nation’s egg-producing hen population<\/a>, driving wholesale prices into record-high territory and far surpassing the price explosion seen a few years ago when the bird flu first emerged. This is an alarming trend, and egg prices at the supermarket will likely rise further in the weeks and months ahead.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The latest wholesale data from Urner Barry<\/a> shows that the price for a dozen eggs has jumped to a record high of $5.4, exceeding the previous peak of $4.65 set in December 2022. Rising wholesale prices are expected to continue pressuring supermarket prices higher.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

According to the USDA’s bird flu dashboard<\/a>, 15.5 million birds across the Lower 48 have been infected by avian influenza over the last 30 days.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\"\"\/<\/figure>\n\n\n\n

About 20 million egg-laying hens died in the fourth quarter of 2024 because of the escalating health crisis, denting the nation’s egg-laying population. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

“Unlike in past years, in 2024, all major production systems experienced significant losses, including conventional caged, cage-free, and certified organic types,” USDA wrote in a report earlier this month. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

The end result is this: <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Readers may want to consider building or purchasing chicken coops to secure their own egg supply, as shortages are expected to persist. Additionally, a growing trend among some Americans involves sourcing clean food from mom-and-pop farms or utilizing their own land for food production. It may be time for folks to shift away from toxic food supply chains controlled by mega-corporations. <\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
