You can blame Chinese birds for the first instance of bird flu crossing over to infect humans back in 1997 (when Hong Kong effectively culled their entire poultry population to kill the H5N1 virus) for the current methodology of how we treat bird flu: https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC3787969/
Chicken diseases aren’t new, of course. I’m not saying the illuminati cooked up the virus in the Wuhan lab, or anything like that. Just that the elites’ response to it seems to be heading toward, “You commoners have to do without chicken for the greater good. We’re in this together! We have ‘grrrrrrreat!’ plant based alternatives to poultry you should be eating anyway. To save the climate!” Speaking of the climate, it’s been changing for millennia. That doesn’t stop our “betters” from using it as an excuse to reduce us to a 3rd world standard of living.
