dairy cows | California reports 18 more H5N1 outbreaks in dairy cows

The US Department of Agriculture (USDA) Animal and Plant Health Inspection Service (APHIS) today confirmed 18 more H5N1 avian flu outbreaks in dairy cattle, nearly doubling the state’s outbreak total.

California, the country’s biggest dairy producing state, now has the second highest number of outbreaks (34), with Colorado still the state reporting the most outbreaks. The outbreaks have been centered in the Central Valley, and state agriculture officials have been identifying other affected farms due to enhanced surveillance that has focused on those with connections to earlier-affected facilities.

The latest outbreaks push the country’s total number of dairy cow outbreaks to 232 from 14 states since March.
