013: Factory Farms, COVID-19 and Plant-Based Eating

When we were first asked to “shelter at home” it seemed like a reasonable solution to a scary problem. COVID-19 appeared to come out of nowhere.

Most people believed it would be a short-term situation, gladly sacrificing a few days at home for the “good of all.”

Yet, truth be told, it’s likely 99.9% of people had no idea what was in store.

Factory farms are shutting down due to the number of cases and deaths occurring in the very locations where “food” is processed, and the fear factor increases for a great many people.

In the case of factory farms, rather than admit that these plants are breeding grounds for disease, contamination, viruses and countless injuries, the “powers that be” are doing all they can to get public support and sympathy for what they deem as a major food shortage and a break in the food supply chain.

They are doing all they can to mislead the public by convincing people they will experience protein deficiency if they don’t eat animal based products.

Nothing could be further from the truth. The truth of the matter is this; factory farms are unhealthy to humans and animals. Plain and simple.
