Bird flu has made eggs more expensive — does it also make them unsafe to eat?
The main factor that has sent egg prices rising is the bird flu, which may draw a whole new concern to your mind: are eggs even safe to eat right now?
- The U.S. Department of Agriculture also reports that the chances of eggs or poultry infected by the bird flu entering the food chain are “extremely low.”
- Eggs, like poultry, that are prepared correctly and cooked properly are safe to consume, the USDA notes. That applies regardless of whether there’s a bird flu outbreak or not.
- Cooking, eggs and poultry should reach an internal temperature of 165 degrees Fahrenheit. This will kill bacteria and viruses, the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention explains, including avian influenza A viruses.
- Storing eggs properly — aka, in the refrigerator — is also important.
Despite this “lack of danger” to the public, the US has euthanized over 150 Million chickens in the last week (that we know of). This is not a bird / avian flu issue, it’s a purposeful government directed reduction in the food supply and increase in food prices. It aligns with WEF and UN objectives of no natural protein for citizens — only fake food for the majority!
Why is Trump still allowing this destruction of food?
I suspect your question is rhetorical — but for clarity — Trump has been in office for all of 7 business days and his nomination of RFKjr has not yet been confirmed. He has already eliminated the WHO from US decisions and is moving at a blistering pace — so lets see what happens after his team is in place.
Guess I’m impatient!
Here’s hoping that RFKjr gets in!
