This bird flu is a strange one, but not new, China has bouts of it every year.

What is odd, is that it is killing millions of chickens.

Most are not aware that a few months ago, there was a start of chicken disease in S. California and it was in backyard flocks ( like a family would have), they went through the area and killed all the pet chickens, then it was in Las Vegas, Arizona and Texas.

Next thing WHO was reporting that millions of chickens had to be killed, seems it got into the big chicken farms.

Sorry the name escapes me.

It has been happening for years, in the early 70's the Gov showed up and said we had to cage all our chickens, so they could be vaccinated, they came back and put a drop of vaccine in the eye of the chicken.

Forgot that disease name too.
