A deadly bird flu variant has wiped out 95% of the chickens at Hickman Farms in Arizona, leading to significant economic and operational impacts. The outbreak could have been prevented with vaccination, which the U.S. government currently exports but does not administer domestically. The farm is now in the process of de-population and cleaning, which will take nearly two years, and the incident has raised concerns about poultry safety and industry practices.
