Published 1 week, 2 days ago
Description
Victoria has confirmed seven cases of H5 bird flu in crested terns found in the state's southwest region. Dr Graeme Cooke, Victoria's Chief Veterinary Officer, reports the cases form a cluster pattern consistent with South Australia's outbreak, with no infections detected in Victorian poultry. Authorities are conducting surveillance and urging the public to report sick or dead wildlife in other species beyond crested terns.
