"Recent Avian Flu Outbreak Strikes US Commercial Poultry Farm"

The U.S. has reported its first case of avian flu on a commercial poultry farm since April, with a flock of 47,300 turkeys in South Dakota testing positive. Infected flocks are culled to prevent the spread of the virus, potentially impacting the poultry meat and egg supply. Since 2022, the U.S. has lost 58.8 million birds to avian flu, leading to record-high prices for turkey meat and eggs. Farmers have been working to rebuild their flocks, but the presence of the virus in the wild bird population raises concerns about future outbreaks.
