After confirming the presence of highly pathogenic avian flu in a flock of chickens, nearly 48,000 birds were killed at a north Alabama farm, state agriculture officials said.
A Marshall County commercial pullet farm — one that raises chicks from hatching until they are ready to produce eggs when they are moved to a laying barn — was placed under quarantine after samples were confirmed positive for HPAI, the Alabama Department of Agriculture & Industries announced Friday.
HPAI is highly contagious to birds but considered low risk to humans and the virus is not considered a threat to food safety, the department said.
EColi lives everywhere. It’s in your house. Your bathroom. It’s literally in the root vegetables you eat. That’s why you boil them. It’s impossible to have a truly clean food product is my point.
But the example you cited is due to animals is my point. Which you don’t have in a lab
Your assumption is that animals contaminate. That is not the the case. It’s a naturally occurring thing that pretty much lives everywhere. Not exclusive to animals vs plants.
It literally is the case lol. It’s really not hard to google this
What about carrots, onions, etc?
