The US Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) has urged people to refrain from kissing live poultry amid an outbreak of salmonella.
The CDC and public health officials are investigating salmonella outbreaks after 163 people were reported ill in 43 states.
The infections have been linked to contact with backyard poultry.
"Don't kiss or snuggle the birds, as this can spread germs to your mouth and make you sick," the health agency said.
It warned that poultry, like chicken and ducks, can carry salmonella germs even if they look healthy and clean, and these germs can easily spread in areas where they live and roam.
Infection can cause fever, diarrhoea, stomach pain and vomiting. Most people recover without treatment, but more severe cases can cause death.

CDC & FDA - two sides of the same patently unconstitutional coin of the now totalitarian federal government.
Tear down the unconstitutional portion of the federal government!!!!!
The long running Laugh-In gag was chicken jokes.
If I could do HTME (like normal 21st Century people) I could send the following cover story:
Please, no chicken jokes! They are foul. Thank God It’s Fry Day.

Sex without kissing is not very romantic.
Over half of our gubamint agencies are useless.. States could do the job a bunch of remote bureaucRats are “in charge of”.
From Education to Commerce&Trade, Health and Housing.. the more Feds get involved, the more messed up things get..
It’s enough to make a person come to the realization big gubamint has a lot of gubamint chickencrap attached.
Now who would want to hug that?

Chicken enthusiast responds to new CDC guidance on kissing chickens
Just sounds like the CDC are giving people advice that everyone will follow, because really, how many people kiss chickens? DOH!!!
This is a difficult thing to ask of chicken lovers after a moment of intimacy. The least you can do is kiss them and tell you will respect them in the morning. I just think this is going too far and the whole world is crazy. Am I way out of line here?
My kids just about wore the feathers off of one of our chickens playing with it. There was not a more spoiled chicken anywhere on the planet. Never got sick from it though.
Reminded me of the chicken kissing scene in SMILE”(1975) with Bruce Dern.
I hear that diarrhoea is pretty serius.

May I be frank with you? My brothers got the biggest laughs asking me if chickens have lips.
When I heard this story, my first thought was: they shouldn’t be kissing the chickens on the lips.

This warning is on the order of do not store gasoline in plastic bags.
As a poster said earlier in this thread, half the gov agencies are useless and the states could do a better job. I kinda think that’s what the founders of this nation believed. If it’s not directly mentioned in the Constitution, then it’s a state responsibility. We’ve allowed federal overreach to get to the point of total dictatorship with some of the stupidest crap coming from it imaginable.
