All these people are complaining about the avain flu that has been in the news and soon to be in a movie, but we are those to blame. If you consider the way we treat brids, its can be explained. One shed in a chicken or turkey farm can house tens of thousands of birds who are never allowed outside and are forced to live in their own filth. So you can imagine that if one bird gets sick, the disease can quickly spread to all of them. History tells us that each and every pandemic within the last 100 years arose because of animal agriculture. Farmers already know that the conditions they allow are breeding grounds for diseases. They dose their animals with massive amounts of drugs to combat this, which you come into contact with everyday, and therfoer risk contracting avain flu. The only way to ensure that we protect ourselves from this disease would be to adopt a vegetarian diet, to learn more and to order a free vegetarian starter kit you can visit goveg.com
