[Vision2020] are you interested in having backyard chickens?

[Donovan Arnold]

Well, thing is, pigs can catch bird flu, mutate the bird flu and transmit it to humans. That is another reason keeping pigs around is dangerous. Pigs are dirty, not because of the mud, but because of their immune system. Birds can fly in from village to village, city to city, give it to the pigs, the pigs give it to the farmer, they farmer brings it to the market, and everyone has whatever the bird flew in with.

I'm not an epidemiologist or biologist.  How many (if any) of the poultry diseases Wayne P. listed can actually be transmitted to people (or even other non-avians)?

Yeah, but you cannot just kick people out the city because they have illness or infection.

Just what we needed! Allowing  animals in the city limits that carry, among other things: 



Fowl Typhoid
Avian Influenza (bird flu)
Newcastle Disease (END)
Avian chlamydiosis
Avian encephalomyelitis
Infectious Laryngotracheitis (ILT)
Duck hepatitis
Fowl Cholera
Egg drop syndrome
Goose parvovirus infection (DerzsyÂ’s disease)
Turkey viral rhinotracheitis or swollen head disease in chickens




Too bad they don't smoke, then the Gang of 7 would have been all over banning them!  
Thank God for elections!
