People, Trump promised he was going to do something about this, but you all voted for President Musk anyway.
Whelp, guess it was nice having chickens while we did.
Somebody better figure out a way to make crickets seem appetizing, ASAP. Otherwise, things might start to get pretty dire around here.
Don’t need crickets, use plants! There’s already some good communities here on lemmy
LOL, well, as someone that has not eaten chicken in ages and ages, not eating chicken does not mean resorting to eating crickets. Plenty of other options, some with a very, very long shelf life if you keep it away from pests and so on…
Where’s the RNA vaccine for livestock?
I wonder if it would work to administer at that kind of scale? Or maybe they only have so much and are keeping it in reserve for humans for now?
Is there a vaccine for humans against this kind of flu? And will Trump and RFK Jr. ban it and sell Trump Bleach pills instead?
For H5N1, it seems there are a few vaccines for humans (in addition to vaccinations for poultry):

Some vaccines also exist for use in humans, and others are in testing. As of July 2024 these include Aflunov, Celldemic and Seqirus/Audenz.[8][9]
…but it seems the RNA ones are not in production yet?

Hasn’t been updated in a while, might as well read it before it gets scrubbed…
I’m picturing an assembly line worker putting a Brainwormz-branded UV tube up the asses of chickens as they go by on a conveyor belt…maybe it will align their chakras at the same time and spritz them with essential oils…
If the birds weren’t kept in such horrifically constricted locations, many millions wouldn’t need to die.
If they gave the birds good living conditions eggs would be very expensive.

Ok yeah but have you considered how better treatment would affect their profit margins?
Here’s an idea - maybe, just maybe - factory farming at scale to feed the SAD is something that won’t end well for humans either? I mean, beyond the health problems it already causes…
I only know SAD as meaning seasonal affective disorder. What do you mean it as?
SAD=Standard American Diet.
In other words, eating wayyyy too much meat (and eggs/dairy) and very low on fruits and vegetables:
I feel like eggs are a part of most peoples diet. It’s in like 90% of Chinese dishes you see on social media
Yes, it seems like many countries top us for egg consumption. It’s probably because much of the SAD is about consuming so much other animal protein (often marketed as a health food, lol, because “protein”) besides eggs, so maybe they take a back seat in this unhealthy lifestyle.
California chiming in: Trumpy just wasted 5 billion gallons of water earmarked for fruits, veg, rice and nuts.
Expect that to be an issue this summer too.
I figure that was purposeful sabotage, but it’s also possible donvict is just really that stupid.
No way. He’s got smart people with him. They know exactly what this is gonna entail. They’re speed running the fall of America now. They’re blitzing it asap before a resistance can form.
Why not both?
Irrigation in California is even more so used for growing animal feed. It will be a larger problem for the dairy and beef industries
Ah, thanks for clarifying. Never heard it used that way.
Yeah, seems Wikipedia now redirects from SAD -> Western pattern diet. Not sure when that came into use, but SAD is something you’d see fairly frequently on some corners of the 'net…or in places like government sites, though who knows how long they’ll be up:
Thats his OPA.

That’s what I always say. As long as I accomplish that, I know each day is fulfilled.
