H5N1 affects turkey farm in Missouri
United States // 03 May, 2016
U.S authorities have reported an outbreak of a mild avian flu, H5N1, on a turkey farm in Missouri. The flock of 39,000 birds has been culled, and movement restrictions are in place to prevent spread of the virus. All commercial flocks within a 10-kilometer radius of the farm have tested negative.
H5N1 was found for the first time in a wild bird in Washington in January 2015. This outbreak, which was detected last month, is considered less contagious or deadly as the other highly pathogenic strains. There have never been any human cases in the U.S.
