‘Since it was first identified, the H5 strain of avian influenza and its variants have led to the slaughter of over half a billion farmed birds.’
You can check policies here at the CDC, WHO and GOV.UK.
I don’t agree with culling, it is overkill and seems so 15th century.
If birds are given time, decent food and kept in one place, when they recover they won’t be a problem.
So let’s keep this short and simple, as I wrote in this piece for keeping humans well….
‘How I Fix Flu or Asthma’, Nigella Sativa or Black Cumin seed works on COVID.
I throw Black Cumin seed in cooking, maybe half a teaspoon a meal.
Not sure if I ever caught COVID and I have been a front line worker for 4 years.
The important thing is that Nigella Sativa or Black Cumin also blocks Avian flu or H5N1 bird flu.
‘Moreover, avian influenza virus subtype H5N1 has previously been reported to be treated with Nigella sativa extract. Ethanol extract of Nigella sativa showed moderate dose-dependent antiviral activity and prevented the replication of H5N1.’

And Black Cumin is not only antiviral but is a great bird and animal feed.
For people who own chickens this study was 60g/kg of Nigella Sativa in the feed.

‘In conclusion, this study suggests that dietary inclusion of different levels of BCM showed a positive influence on most lactating characteristics and economic performance for the lambs and lactating Awassi ewes, and could be used as a good alternative feed source in ruminant feeds.’

‘Inclusion of BCS improved average daily gain and feed conversion ratio.
Level of dietary BCS supplementation increased dry matter intake (DMI).
BCS improved immune responses of small ruminants.
BCS inclusion had no negative effects on metabolism and blood metabolites.’

Nigella Sativa can only help to avoid culling so you know.
