Georgia Halts Poultry Sales
The state of Georgia has halted all in-state poultry sales due to the confirmation of a bird flu case in a commercial poultry operation in Elbert County, marking the first such case in the state since the nationwide outbreak began in 2022. As of January 17, 2025, all poultry exhibitions, shows, swaps, meets, and sales throughout the state have been suspended until further notice. The US Department of Health and Human Services has also awarded $590 million to Moderna to accelerate the development of vaccines to protect people from flu strains in birds.
The confirmed bird flu case prompted state officials to immediately halt all in-state poultry activities, with commercial poultry operations within a 6-mile radius of the affected area under quarantine and undergoing surveillance testing for at least two weeks.
Georgia Agriculture Commissioner Tyler Harper emphasized the serious threat this poses to Georgia’s poultry industry, which is a significant sector for the state’s economy.
The US government has increased funding to Moderna to develop a bird flu vaccine for humans, with the company’s influenza vaccine using mRNA technology.
The suspension of poultry activities and the development of vaccines are part of the efforts to mitigate the spread of the disease and protect the livelihoods of thousands of Georgians who make their living in the state’s poultry industry.

Got some there, too..........
Arkansas is a major chicken producer...any flu news from there.
Had some in Louisiana.................
Yeah but they don't survive the franchise war. Only Taco Bell from that point.
Our local KFC is terrible. Popeyes not much better. Dislike Zaxby’s and Slim Chickens as too expensive.
The Best chicken around is a local Mom & Pop place called Danny’s Fried Chicken in Niceville!

I happily pay $6.99 for pasture raised eggs. They’re the healthiest, have most omega 3s. Plus, the hens have acres to roam around in, eating all the bugs and other stuff that is what they naturally eat, I’ve heard. Part of the price is for shipping from a southern state to our northern state.
I’m a very old woman living on SS, but my MD says I’m the healthiest person my age he’s ever seen — take one prescription drug. Expects me to live to be 100.
I’ve seen my chickens eat small Geico lizards and even small frogs...........
Who knew? Do you ship to Spokane?
LOL, no, sorry, no license..............
Do you have a link for this? I talked to a grower and he was not aware of it
thx
ONE case and they shut down the entire poultry industry in georgia ... this is gross overkill and was done to deliberately induce massive price increases in chicken and eggs as a deliberate method to increase food inflation to attack President Trump with ... period ...
This is not true. But it’s a great way to create panic as it created alarm in me for a few hours until I searched to see if it really is true.
