In the weeks leading up to Thanksgiving apparently nearly 1 million turkeys have fallen sick with avian influenza, leading to their termination.

The bird flu, which has been deemed the worst ever in American history this past year, had basically simmered down in 2023, according to the United States Department of Agriculture (USDA), but all of sudden it purportedly came back with a vengeance, but only targeting turkeys and not chickens mysteriously enough.

A map and record of the reported cases of bird flu can be seen on the USDA’s Animal and Plant Health Inspection Service (APHIS) website.

Within the last 30 days the bulk of the outbreak has been in the Midwest and West Coast; and as of today 944,400 birds have been culled, all of them turkeys or undisclosed. No chickens have been culled so far.

Meat + Poultry had reported earlier this week, when the numbers were less 620,000 birds infected, wrote that this is 260 times more birds than in the summer months combined.

Minnesota’s Star Tribune highlighted how this reported late outbreak is comparable to last year’s turkey shortage. The paper wrote:


The autumn bird flu outbreak has so far been minor compared to the last year’s spread, which sent turkey and egg prices soaring. As of Tuesday, and with less than a month until Thanksgiving, the market for frozen and fresh turkeys is “steady” according to the USDA.

Prices for frozen whole turkeys remain below average and are ranging $1 to $1.20 per pound nationwide after reaching nearly $2 per pound during last year’s avian flu-stricken holiday season.

Fresh hens recently climbed to $1.40 per pound, matching the three-year average for late October.

Turkey and poultry supplies have recovered over the last year. This means there is plenty of turkey – and the lower prices that come with strong supplies – to go around for Thanksgiving.

Farm Bureau economist Bernt Nelson wrote earlier this month.

UPI echoes a similar sentiment: “The spread of bird flu impacted the U.S. poultry industry and was blamed for a spike in egg prices.”

This outbreak is not limited to the States, however, as Romania and Bulgaria are also reporting a new wave of cases as well, according to a statement from the World Organization for Animal Health (WOAH).

‘The spread of avian influenza, commonly called bird flu, has raised concerns among governments and the poultry industry after it ravaged flocks around the world in recent years, disrupting supply, fueling higher food prices and raising the risk of human transmission,’ Inquirer.net reported.

Additionally, ‘A different strain of bird flu spreading in Cambodia recently infected and killed an adult and child who had direct contact with infected poultry, according to the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention,’ Star Tribune noted.

There is no indication that these two human infections with H5N1 pose a threat to the U.S. public.

AUTHOR COMMENTARY

Well, call me a “conspiracy theorist,” but this is highly suspicious. No chickens, just turkeys before Thanksgiving in a few weeks – nothing to see here!

These numbers will of course increase, which I believe is purely artificial, to justify higher prices and extortion, and a deterrence away from eating meat.

Furthermore, WinePress readers know that I have been warning for some time now that bird flu seems poised to become the next shamdemic, that will be blamed on a colossal number of deaths and justification to cull more livestock. You can check out my detailed reports on this here.

[1] Now the Spirit speaketh expressly, that in the latter times some shall depart from the faith, giving heed to seducing spirits, and doctrines of devils; [2] Speaking lies in hypocrisy; having their conscience seared with a hot iron; [3] Forbidding to marry, and commanding to abstain from meats, which God hath created to be received with thanksgiving of them which believe and know the truth. [4] For every creature of God is good, and nothing to be refused, if it be received with thanksgiving: [5] For it is sanctified by the word of God and prayer.

1 Timothy 4:1-5

[7] Who goeth a warfare any time at his own charges? who planteth a vineyard, and eateth not of the fruit thereof? or who feedeth a flock, and eateth not of the milk of the flock? [8] Say I these things as a man? or saith not the law the same also? [9] For it is written in the law of Moses, Thou shalt not muzzle the mouth of the ox that treadeth out the corn. Doth God take care for oxen? [10] Or saith he it altogether for our sakes? For our sakes, no doubt, this is written: that he that ploweth should plow in hope; and that he that thresheth in hope should be partaker of his hope. (1 Corinthians 9:7-10).
