Biosecurity, on the other hand, is proactive"think locked gates, disinfected boots, and wild bird netting. It's credited with keeping many operations, including hatcheries, virus-free even in hot zones. In Minnesota, a 2023 study from the University of Minnesota found farms with top-tier biosecurity (e.g., sealed vents, no shared equipment) had 75% lower infection rates than lax ones, despite proximity to infected wild ducks. Hatcheries lean hard on this: a single breach"like a worker tracking in contaminated mud"can ruin a batch, so they've doubled down on protocols since 2022. X posts from poultry workers in 2025 highlight hatcheries using UV sanitizers and banning outside vehicles, claiming zero cases where enforced. Globally, the Netherlands cut outbreaks by 50% from 2021 to 2023 with mandatory indoor housing and biosecurity, per Dutch ag reports, protecting hatcheries upstream.

You know, one test of a good AI is to ask it simple questions like who one the last foot-race across the English channel....
Or trip it up with cosmology. Or dreams and consciousness.
