It's a bit more complicated. Whatever reasons The Hand Up Biden's Rectum (heretofore known as THUBR) had for this policy -- probably just a grift profit line assessment -- and as awful as mass cullings are (but no worse than the horrors of the animal meat industrial complex), large-scale vaccination like that would just breed even more lethal avian flu strains via quasi-species mutant swarm "quantum" logic.

People need to raise and kill their own meat, period, sez I. Since most of us are surrounded by asphalt parking lots and are lucky to have even a postage-stamp-sized yard, the horrific enslavement and mass butchering of Our Chosen Animals continues and will most likely do so until the whole stinking thing collapse.

Either way, the cost of animal protein will only go up for quite some time yet.

As some hyper-methed-up screamo singer, er, screeches:

Not that I think vegetarianism is sound, practical or wise. But neither is our current relationship with death/meat.

According to Tiana Lowe Doescher, it would have been cheaper to vaccinate than to euthanize. And we wouldn't have to take out a loan to buy a dozen eggs.
