I vote for avoiding the vast industrial methods we have now as a long term solution. Our nation could financially help the industry to develop the regional, smaller and more humane production methods. Seems like the vast industrial methods may have caused this problem over time. Our producers need our help.

This whole issue is insane. The fastest, easiest, cheapest, safest route, is to incorporate chlorine dioxide. EcoLab has a dedicated solution, as does every ClO2 manufacture around the globe. It is as simple as adding sodium CHLORITE to the water. Sure, you could pay more for an entire system, but this cheap compound that is used in water systems as a purifier due to it's ability to kill ALL viruses (including bird flu, Covid, measles, herpes, HIV, etc), bacteria, mold, spores (think Anthrax), yeast and even biofilm, is the obvious answer. EcoLab bought our founders first company, Alcide Corp, in 2004. Here's the poultry solution:
