Possible chicken/turkey shortage?

[crays]

A good friend has been up in Minnesota for about 10 days now trucking in water to the poultry houses to murder the birds. They are spraying the coops full of foam to suffocate the birds. Chickens and turkeys both. It is a FEMA project and so far over 5 mil birds have been destroyed. FEMA claims we could lose more than 50% of bird population. It is currently in 16 states including Colorado. Friend may be traveling to Iowa next, then Wy and Co. fEMA thinks that it is being spread by migratory birds BUT it is moving from south to north, the migratory birds are moving north to south. Also some wide birds have been tested positive for the bird flu also.
friend says that drivers are not allowed out of trucks, there are workers there that are suited up in Tyvek with booties and all, that are handling all the work. He was told that this will be a 6 month job .

Only what he believes because he is not allowed out of the truck. Can't unroll windows or open doors either. Could be anything in them coops but he states he does not here any screaming or anything.

Well, it is FEMA, after all.

Even that is not enough, especially when the airborne particulates in the area, from tyvek suits, dust etc is able to be transmitted via the air flow from outside to vehicles cabin / interior.

One would "Think" CDC would have enacted more stringent guidelines to prevent transmission of an airborne pathogen, from point A-B/Z
