The Biden administration is reportedly considering a mass vaccination campaign for poultry against avian influenza. Chicken farmers worry it could hurt their bottom line.
Several vaccines against different strains of bird flu have been developed and administered to poultry in other countries, including China, but the United States has never carried out mass bird flu vaccination. Mass vaccination could cause problems exporting poultry products because trading partners may object that it is difficult to prove poultry is not infected with the virus.
The recent spread of bird flu to wild birds and other mammals is one reason why U.S. officials may be considering vaccinating poultry despite trade concerns. No such vaccine has been authorized for poultry.
