Eggs are for sale at a grocery store in Lyndhurst, New Jersey, on Sunday, January 19, 2025, as bird flu is forcing farmers to slaughter millions of chickens a month, pushing U.S. egg prices to more than double their cost in the summer of 2023.

Eggs are for sale at a grocery store in Lyndhurst, New Jersey, on Sunday, January 19, 2025, as bird flu is forcing farmers to slaughter millions of chickens a month, pushing U.S. egg prices to more than double their cost in the summer of 2023.

Ohio is the second-largest egg-producing state in the country, and it leads the nation in the number of bird flu cases and the number of birds destroyed.

On this hour of "All Sides," we're looking at how the state is combatting the disease.

We'll also learn about how the disease spreads and when egg prices will drop.
