I just received an email newsletter from #MDACF regarding #HPAI. It's not looking good...
From the memo [in PDF format]:
"Avian Influenza (HPAI) Notices:
Due to the continuing US outbreak of Highly Pathogenic Avian Influenza (HPAI) in domesticated and wild birds and in dairy cattle, Animal Health Officials from all six #NewEnglandStates are united in advising the following for agricultural fairs, competitions, exhibitions, shows, swaps, or other in-person events that encourage the gathering or co-mingling of birds and/or cattle:
Avian species
The New England State Veterinarians strongly discourage the exhibition of domestic and wild waterfowl species and may recommend delaying or canceling domestic fowl or poultry shows. If events are held, best practices for biosecurity should be implemented. Waterfowl exhibitions are currently banned in MA through April 30, 2026, which may be extended.
Bovine species
The New England State Veterinarians strongly discourage the exhibition of any bovines, including both dairy and beef cattle, that have been present in any state at the time that state had a current outbreak of HPAI in cattle.
Bovines that have been shipped from currently affected states in 2026 should not be allowed on the premises of New England fairs or shows. Moving to or from an affected state for any reason will void any New England Fair and Show Season Official Certificates of Veterinary Inspection (OCVIs) that have been issued for such cattle for the remainder of the 2026 season.
The states currently affected by HPAI in cattle can be found on the USDA website..."

As #BirdFlu wreaks havoc in the Midwest, researchers say #vaccines offer a way out
Researchers say vaccinating poultry is crucial for reining in H5 and reducing the stress on farmers and consumers hit by high egg prices. Vaccination could also help reduce the number of infections and the threat of a pandemic.
By Brian Allnutt
April 2, 2025Excerpt: "Spring and fall bird migrations could add to bird flu threat
"Spring and fall bird migrations could add to the H5 threat as birds congregate in areas near farms and mix with waterfowl, which are key hosts for the virus.
"In the Great Lakes region, a combination of migratory bird flyways, waste grain missed during harvest, and abundant lakes and reservoirs attracts large numbers of migrating birds—and potentially high levels of avian flu virus, says Matthew Hardy, a waterfowl ecologist and co-founder of #AgriNerds, a company that tracks bird movements to help farms prevent outbreaks.
"Hardy pointed to Darke and Mercer counties in northwest Ohio, near Dayton, as areas where some of these factors may have contributed to major outbreaks in poultry facilities in late 2024 and early 2025.
" 'There’s going to be continued outbreaks and likely mass die-offs in places where birds stage,' Hardy said, referring to the areas where birds come together and rest during migration.
"Wetland loss could make this issue worse, pushing birds closer to farms.
"Changing temperatures, weather patterns, and human activity have driven the loss of natural wetlands that waterfowl and other species depend on, Hardy said. This has brought them closer to farms as they search for food and suitable habitat. The rate of wetland loss, primarily driven by agriculture, has increased in recent years in the Upper Midwest, Grist reports.
"Cardona, with the University of Minnesota, said fall may pose a more significant threat for disease spread than spring. Birds flying north in spring often have some immunity from exposure to viruses the previous year. But those hatched in fall don’t have immunity and may be more vulnerable and likely to spread the virus, especially in the Upper Midwest.
" 'The birds are breeding and propagating up near the Arctic Circle or in colder areas … As they fly south, those birds mix and mingle and share and reassort viruses,' she said.
"Birds develop antibodies on their southward migrations, reducing the amount of virus they shed over time, Cardona said. This could explain why so many H5 outbreaks occurred in the upper part of U.S. flyways in states like Minnesota, Michigan, and the Dakotas, which also have large numbers of turkeys and laying hens that are especially susceptible to H5.
"She emphasized the difficulty of making predictions about H5.
" 'The only predictable thing about influenza is that it’s entirely unpredictable,' she said."

#Sequence analysis and molecular characterization of low pathogenic avian #influenza #H9N2 virus isolated from #chickens in #Sabah https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/39154271/?utm_source=Feedly&utm_medium=rss&utm_campaign=None&utm_content=1LGAx__djGAJ9poBzWGqPtjEbBDtz4ipSRRPUplmgHEyyF_Ihj&fc=None&ff=20240818151352&v=2.18.0.post9+e462414
Aminoacids in #HA cleavage site displayed a characteristic #LPAI motif (PARSSR/ GLF). Notably, at position 226, isolate had aminoacid Leucine (L) demonstrating its ability to bind to receptor of #mammals, resulting in potential #risk of transmission to #humans. In addition, H9N2 isolate harboured seven potential N-glycosylation sites.
