    At least in Colorado, whenever an infected wild bird landed in a poultry farm they had to cull the entire flock. That must be weeks if not a couple months of lost production, unfulfilled contracts, and wasted inputs. All while their labour force either moves on or gets a disease with a 50% fatality rate. Maybe insurance will cover it the first few times it happens, but with the premiums going up to account for that risk. This is so stupid.
