Avian Influenza (Bird Flu)
Avian Influenza, also known as Bird Flu, is a sickness caused by viruses that spread easily among infected animals. It can spread through feces, saliva, and nasal discharge. Bird Flu spreads quickly between birds, and can also make other animals like goats, cows, and cats sick. Humans can be infected too. Preventing the spread of the virus is key to maintaining healthy birds, egg production, and your health and safety. For the latest data and guidance on bird flu, click here.
