Is Culling Chickens the Wise Thing to Do?
#24 2025 The Rowen Report
Dear Subscriber,
I have a thought for the chicken/egg crisis. More than 10 years ago I went to Sierra Leone to take on Ebola. The fellow who got me to people in the country was Jeff McNamara, a specialist in environmental purification. He later went himself during the ongoing epidemic and brought equipment to purify/cleanse a local possibly Ebola infested environment with ozone fog.
Ozone in ambient air is tricky. It is highly effective at destroying pathogens, spores, and inhalant volatile chemicals, but must be used at rather low ambient air concentrations as it is highly irritating to lungs if higher than the background concentrations left behind by an air purifying thunderstorm. We have an ozone generator for our home and use it at low, sweet-smelling concentrations. I believe it is totally safe, and effective, this way.
Avian flu fears are ravaging factory chicken farms. I am not a fan of such factory “farming” but that is what we have to provide eggs and chickens for millions of people and at reasonable prices. The farms are destroying millions of birds by euthanizing large swaths of birds as soon as avian flu tests positive at a location. I have to ask if this is a prudent idea.
I do not believe we should be raising essentially cloned bird stocks of no genetic diversity. But that is exactly what is happening with factory farms. Chickens are bred for egg laying and reproduction, and fast growth. Not for immunity.
We know that good genetics for a population means diversity. Here is a place where “diversity” should be “included”. “Equity”, equality in genes, spells disaster. Consider the old Hawaiians, sheltered from the world, and being decimated by a common, and truly a mostly benign disease of children – measles. Their population had no genetic immunity before the white disease bearing missionaries arrived. So, rather than have nature select birds with natural immunity, or permit immunity to build up, we slaughter millions of birds that otherwise would be providing you protein rich eggs.
My suggestion: follow’s Mr. McNamara’s ideas. And, instead of ozone use, why not try ozonated glycerin fog (nebulization)? Americans were using OG nebulization to successfully treat respiratory infection 130 years ago!!!! Tesla ozone generators were available at the time, though it is not clear if the OG of the day was made with Tesla equipment or not. However, that is immaterial to this matter.
OG is not expensive to produce. And a little aerosolized in the air might go a long, long way in a chicken coup to protect the animals from lightning transmission, and allow the population to build up resistance. That way more genetically resistant stock could be naturally selected. I and others believe what “they” are doing now will simply lead to more and more economically devastating culls as these flus make their natural rounds.
If you know someone in the industry, I would be happy to assist in these endeavors. RKF, Jr is HHS secretary. While I was in intermittent contact with him before the election, the email address I have no longer goes through to him. If anyone in the audience has access to him, please forward this. He is ABOVE the FDA which agency has jurisdiction in this matter. We might be able to attenuate bird flu transmission in the factory farms and reverse the egg shortage and surging prices. This is a matter of urgent importance to our animal husbandry, our food supply, and health in general. These approaches are safe, leave NO toxic residue, and could be highly effective with no risk. I would not hesitate to walk in an atmosphere of reduced disease risk via ozonated glycerin or aerosolized peroxides of any kind, or air purified by UV light, and I would be very hesitant to walk amongst an animal population that could be infested with avian flu as there is still low, but definite risk to humans.
Officials forecast a 41% increase in egg prices this year in what some are calling “eggflation”. Where eggs are available, consumers are often limited in the number they can purchase at a time. Breakfast chains from Waffle House to Denny’s have added a surcharge of $0.50 for each egg served up”.

I would like to suggest, that if you do not get a direct connection to Robert F Kennedy, that you perhaps could get in contact with Dr. Robert Malone. He seems to be well connected. Here is a link to his substack account: https://substack.com/@rwmalonemd.
Considering the amount of OG required for these many massive factory farms, I expect it would take major sized ozone generators such as used in water purification plants, and truck loads of glycerin.
Several yrs ago we did trials in Guatemala in chicken and swine commercial operations. We sprayed a dilute solution of a polymer-bound photosensitizer on the bedding and animals. We made drum quantities in a pilot reactor in a 8 hour process. We saw a significant decrease in mortality from respiratory infections!The photosensitizer catalyzed formation of singlet oxygen ("energized" oxygen) which we presume cleaned the air and also treated the animals as they inhaled it. A team from a vet school did a microscopic examination of lung tissue from treated vs untreated poultry and saw no signs of abnormalities in the treated samples, and actually thought they looked healthier. There was a slight increase in mortality due to aggression in the crowded environment which was thought due to aggression from healthier animals. Another scalable form of oxidative therapy.
