Two commercial turkey farms in Iowa have been hit by the reemerging highly pathogenic bird flu, causing about 100,000 birds to be killed to prevent the disease from spreading.
The Iowa Department of Agriculture reported the infected commercial poultry flocks within weeks of a turkey farm in South Dakota and one in Utah reporting the first outbreaks in the U.S. since April, raising concerns that more would follow.
The U.S. Department of Agriculture shows 12 commercial flocks in South Dakota, Utah and Minnesota have been affected in October, totaling more than 500,000 birds.
Are you fucking shitting me?
Better get used to it: Climate change is going to be bringing on more diseases so things are going to get worse, not better.
That is likely what you would be thinking and perhaps saying at the supermarket after you arrive there to pick up a turkey for Thanksgiving dinner, only to find it completely bare where the turkeys normally are kept.
