While bird flu has caused the loss of 115 chicken flocks, totaling 23 million birds, and corporations use this to profit-gouge on the price of eggs, the Elon Musk DOGE team fired U.S. Department of Agriculture (USDA) specialists fighting the bird flu outbreak.
The USDA told NBC News that “we are working swiftly to rectify the situation and rescind those letters.” The layoffs hit the National Animal Health Laboratory Network, which does critical lab work, and hit state-level support labs.
At the Wisconsin Veterinary Diagnostic Laboratory, director Keith Poulsen said, “It’s creating a lot of problems.”
No kidding!
