ICYMI: Bird flu found in seven Sask. flocks, including four commercial farms
The Canadian Food Inspection Agency had found the flu on six farms as of Friday, including four commercial operations, meaning an estimated 140,000 exposed poultry have or will need to be purged to halt the virus’s rapid spread.
It is part of a larger surge of avian flu that Dr. Noel Ritson-Bennett said has spread across Canada with alarming speed. Ritson-Bennett said 31 premises across western Canada have detected the highly pathogenic avian flu since early April. It’s a strain of the virus that has long circulated in Asia and Europe and recently made its way to North America, where it has spread rapidly among wild birds, which then transmit it to poultry raised for eggs or meat.
Infections in humans are also very rare, and generally only occur when someone is exposed to infected birds or their environment for an extended period of time.
