What Next: Which Came First, the Bird Flu or the Egg?
Manage episode 452198338 series 1460493
As Thanksgiving approaches the price of eggs is spiking again. But it wasn’t just inflation this time – it was also the rising number of cases of avian flu. How can the USDA, FDA, and CDC contain an outbreak in a country that both hates taking preventative measures and won’t tolerate any disruption in their food supply chain?
Guest: Marcia Brown, food and agriculture reporter at POLITICO.
