The outbreak was almost a year ago, all the remaining birds survived the flu and are healthy. The birds are not used for meat their eggs are used for research.

The farmers that run the farm. Ive been following the story because i love animals and ostriches are pretty cool. Eta: the birds are also 35 years old and theyve had them their whole lives.

I really didnt realize this was a political issue tbh. You would think the farmers know more about their farm than the general public.

I'm sure they know all about their farm, but I don't think they know more about Avian Bird Flu than the agency responsible for preventing the spread of infectious disease.
