    Could we send that same accusation at the chicken farmers because every flu season they act as if they had no idea the flu was going to kill their gains. Then the price of chicken goes up. Get some better protocols or plan for the loss every year.

      One could argue that with chickens it’s genuinely more difficult to manage such a seasonal issue.

      It’s a whole different thing with memory where it’s clear there is de facto collusion to raise prices (and they’ve even been caught doing it before).
