Dr. Brian Hooker of the Children's Health Defense discusses the culling of poultry herds due to bird flu as an economic disaster that paves the way for GMO products. He notes that the USDA has already developed chickens genetically modified to be immune to influenza. The segment suggests the bird flu outbreak is being used to transition the food supply toward lab-altered animals.

Officials ordered the culling of over 4 million chickens in Iowa following the detection of highly infectious bird flu. Dr. Robert Malone notes that while the risk to public health remains low, the policy is designed to protect the poultry industry from interstate spread. The mass extermination of birds has contributed to rising egg prices, though farmers are often compensated through government payouts and insurance.

### Economic Impact, USDA and Genetically Modified Chickens

- **Episode:** [1664: Friendshoring](https://search.noagendashow.net/episode/1664-friendshoring.md)
- **Published:** 2024-05-30
- **Time:** 31:14–33:43
- **Transcript:** https://search.noagendashow.net/episode/1664-friendshoring/chapter/economic-impact-usda-and-genetically-modified-chickens.md

Dr. Brian Hooker suggests that the bird flu crisis serves as an economic catalyst to transition the food supply toward alternative technologies. He points out that the USDA has already developed chickens genetically modified to be immune to influenza, potentially replacing culled natural herds. This shift is viewed as a move toward a more controlled, GMO-based protein industry, including lab-grown meat.

- **Transcript:** https://search.noagendashow.net/episode/848-cash-on-a-pallet/chapter/dark-act-signed-gmo-labeling-controversy.md

President Obama signed the "DARK Act" (Deny Americans the Right to Know), which preempts state-level GMO labeling laws like those in Vermont. The federal law allows for QR codes or other non-explicit labeling methods instead of clear text on packaging. Critics argue the legislation is a "fake" labeling bill designed to protect corporate interests while appearing to address consumer concerns.
