Bird flu: Nearly a million chickens will be slaughtered in Minnesota

In worrying news affecting the poultry industry, it has been confirmed that nearly 1 million chickens at an egg farm in Minnesota will be culled to stop the spread of the highly contagious bird flu.

Officials from the United States Department of Agriculture announced this drastic measure last Monday, after confirming the presence of the virus on a farm located in Wright County, Minnesota.

Additionally, cases of the disease were reported in three smaller herds in the states of South Dakota and Iowa. When the highly pathogenic avian influenza virus is detected on a farm, the immediate and radical action is to cull the entire flock to prevent the disease from spreading to other facilities.

This is not an isolated case, as the poultry and egg industry has been dealing with an outbreak of bird flu since last year. In 2022, approximately 58 million birds, mainly chickens and turkeys, were culled as a preventive measure to combat the spread of the virus. This mass cull had a significant impact on egg and turkey prices, causing concern in both the industry and consumers. Read more

The 1918 Pandemic Never Ended  SciShow

Why isn't the H5N1 Avian Flu on the Flu vaccination schedule? It should be relatively easy to add since we use Chicken eggs to make them, so presumably, it will take to the growing medium better than the other Flu variants?

this outbreak has been overlooked by many but PLEASE look up if you are in an area of high risk before feeding birds. if there is a high concentration of bird flu in your area, do not feed birds, offer birdbaths, etc. this disease IS transmissible to pets and people. millions of birds have already passed away of bird flu in this year alone; if you care about birds and are in an area of risk, it is kinder not to offer anything that will cause them to congregate and spread disease.

Its another stunning day on the farm and I'm pondering what to do with all the poultry now there's an #avianflu prevention zone in place. Luckily the schedule 1 published on the 3rd doesn't require netted housing if birds are outside - YET. Outside housing - at this time - just has to fence them into an area and away from bodies of water. BUT a new rule is to separate chickens from all waterfowl. 😱 so problem solving that, with my thoughts on the subject in today's video coming out this evening. . . All for keeping my birds healthy, but they gotta be happy too! . . #smallholding #smallfarm #farming #poultry #chickens #poultry (at Halesworth) https://www.instagram.com/p/CV5lTUYKcgs/?utm_medium=tumblr

hey be careful picking up birds that are apparently unconscious or behaving weird at least in the US. Avian flu that has transmitted to humans has occurred rarely, but it *has occurred*.

Wuhan’da inceleme yapan @who ekibinde yer alan bilim insanı zoolog Peter Daszak, COVID-19’un laboratuvarda üretilmediğini, hayvanlardan insanlara geçen bir virüs olduğunu, köken olarak hayvansal ürün satılan marketlerde sadece yaban hayvanlarının değil, dondurulmuş balık ve etin de potansiyel köken olarak üzerinde durulduğunu anlatıyor. Posted @withregram • @lebanesevegans Dr. Gauden Galea, World Health Organization Representative, @who : “ As long as people eat meat, there is going to be some risk of infection. “ Then yes, you are shopping for the next pandemic. When 3 out of 4 new or emerging infectious diseases come from animals according to the CDC, then yes, you are shopping for the next pandemic. When Swine Flu because “I love bacon...”. When Bird Flu because “I love chicken...”. When Covid-19 because “I love meat...”. Then yes, you are shopping for the next pandemic. When animals agriculture is the leading cause of deforestation, climate change, ocean dead zones, world hunger, water pollution... then yes, you are shopping for the next pandemic. When eating meat involves slitting throats, then you are shopping for the next pandemic. Karma. Avocado and hummus never caused any pandemic.
