The health secretary has suggested allowing the virus to spread, so as to identify birds that may be immune. Such an experiment would be disastrous, scientists say.
Sounds like a speedrun strat for one of those pandemic games (e.g. Plague Inc.): allow infection to spread across a huge body of test subjects (chickens) with minimal consequences to your final target (humanity) to maximize mutation opportunities (DNA points) that can be spent on acquiring properties of the perfect bioweapon: airborne, long incubation period, long asymptomatic communicative period, and lethal. Then, make the pathogen’s last mutation the ability to infect humans instead of the test subjects, wiping humanity out before they can spin up bioengineering labs to research and develop a cure.
Makes sense if RFK is a eugenics believer, who wants to kill off those he sees to be inferior humans. Kinda matches up with his other comments about not wanting people with chronic disease (as opposed to wanting to cure the chronic diseases)

That was how I played. I don’t think I ever stayed far from that formula.
Didn’t always win the game because CERTAIN ports or airports would close off quick but man it always killed millions of people.
