Good news - the lack of eggs for Easter can be avoided

In Sweden alone, 2 million laying hens have been killed.

- The whole of Europe has been hit hard by the bird flu so we will not see an abundance and campaigns of eggs and chicken this Easter.

But with the dialogue we had today, which was about ensuring that we have eggs and chicken in store for Swedish consumers for Easter, and there will be.

They choose to prioritize Swedish consumers instead of exporting, says Minister of Rural Affairs Jennie Nilsson (S) to SVT News.

After the talks today, the industry and the authorities have stated that the measures taken in Sweden are sufficient and that they have control of the infection.

Also that you can be sure that the eggs and chicken that consumers buy in the store are not affected by the infection.

-We get recurrent outbreaks of bird flu in Sweden and Europe and I think that you have to review international efforts and different regulations to fight the infection, says Jennie Nilsson (S) to SVT News.
