A strain of influenza is ripping through Baghdad. This article doesn't have too many details but this episode has resulted in the death of 2.8 million birds - both directly and indirectly. During outbreaks, farms will put down all of their chicken. Crazy stuff.
What floors me is that there are nearly 3 million chickens around Baghdad. I mean, it shouldn't be that surprising given the population.
