[foreign media: bird flu epidemic aggravates "egg shortage" A Japanese company is forced to sell eggs in the form of "drawing lots". According to a report on the website of Singapore's Lianhe Zaobao on the 30th, the bird flu epidemic has continuously worsened the problem of egg shortage in the global market, and the imbalance between supply and demand has forced Japan to sell eggs in the form of "drawing lots." Reported that the "Nippon Keizai Shimbun" website said that a fresh housing company in Tokyo since the end of March began to draw lots to sell eggs. The head of the company said: "this measure has never been taken on eggs in the past, but a lot of users want to buy eggs, so they have adopted the lottery system." It is reported that the shortage of eggs in Japan has led to a per capita egg consumption reduction of 5% compared with a year ago.
