"Massive Avian Culling in Ohio: Over 1.3 Million Chickens Lost to Bird Flu Outbreak"

Over 1.3 million chickens are being slaughtered on an Ohio egg farm after a case of bird flu was confirmed in the flock. This year, 8.1 million birds have been killed to control the spread of the disease, with several large egg farms being affected. Iowa, the largest egg producing state, has been hit the hardest, with nearly 17.3 million birds killed. Other states, including Minnesota, Maryland, South Dakota, Wisconsin, Georgia, and California, have also reported significant bird flu cases. The virus is spread easily by wild birds, and farmers are taking precautions to prevent infection. Bird flu does not pose a significant health threat to humans, and infected birds are not allowed into the food supply.
