CHARLES COUNTY, Md. — State laboratory testing has detected a case of highly pathogenic H5N1 avian influenza (HPAI) in a Charles County backyard flock. State Department of Agriculture officials have quarantined all affected premises, and birds on the properties are being or have been depopulated to prevent the spread of the disease. Birds from affected flocks will not enter the food system.
This problem seems to be popping up throughout the Country in past years. And now more local. It reminds me of the wack a mole game. You wack one down somewhere, another pops up. I suspect it could be from migratory birds. But, I don't know if there is any hard core proof of it.
