Biden did not do that.

In cases of avian influenza outbreaks, government agencies like the Canadian Food Inspection Agency (CFIA) and the U.S. Department of Agriculture (USDA) are responsible for ordering the culling of infected poultry flocks. This is done to control the spread of the virus and protect public health.

Elaboration:
  • Governmental Authority:
    The CFIA and the USDA, along with state and local governments, play a crucial role in managing avian influenza outbreaks.

  • Purpose of Culling:
    Killing infected birds is a common measure to prevent the virus from spreading further and potentially causing a pandemic.

  • Economic Impact:
    Culling can lead to significant economic losses for farmers and can also impact food prices.

  • Indemnity Payments:
    Governments often provide financial compensation to farmers for the loss of their flocks due to culling.

No he did not. Biden downplayed the danger of Bird Flu.

Here is a far more balanced, expert opinion.

President Biden has not explicitly downplayed the dangers of bird flu, but his administration has faced criticism for a delayed response in the early stages of the 2025 outbreak.

🔍 Criticism:​

  • Former FDA Commissioner Scott Gottlieb and biodefense expert Luciana Borio argued that the Biden administration mishandled the outbreak in cattle, delaying widespread testing and compensation programs for infected farms

  • They noted that only in the past month (as of early 2025) had the administration begun widespread testing of raw milkand launched a compensation program for affected dairy farms

✅ Defense of the Administration:​

  • In contrast, officials from the Department of Health and Human Services and USDA stated that the administration had made bird flu a top priority, citing:
    • A federal order mandating testing of dairy cattle moving between states.
    • A nationwide milk testing initiative launched in October 2024.
    • Distribution of millions of PPE units and antiviralsto protect workers

    • Over $2 billion invested in monitoring and preparedness

🧾 Summary:​

While the Biden administration did eventually ramp up its response, some experts believe it acted too slowly in the early months of the outbreak. However, there is no evidence that President Biden publicly downplayed the threat.
