Summary
The Trump administration’s effort to import eggs to offset losses from bird flu is struggling due to logistical challenges and global supply constraints.
Many countries, including Turkey, are prioritizing domestic supply and imposing export taxes.

To meet demand, the U.S. would need 70 to 100 million eggs in the next month, a goal analysts say is nearly impossible to achieve quickly.
Dear federal employee, this is Elon again. I haven’t seen a response to my last email. Are you mad at me?
