Bird flu hits Michigan dairy farm

A dairy farm in southwestern Michigan has had a case of avian influenza, the first in the state since May.

The state had a flurry of issues after the first dairy cow was detected with the virus on March 29, then five herds in April and 18 in May.


So far there have been no dairy cattle in Canada that have been infected with the virus which is a far greater threat to poultry.
