SUMMARY: Officials have confirmed that a chicken flock from a commercial breeder in Greene County, Mississippi, has tested positive for H5N1 avian influenza (bird flu). The Mississippi Board of Animal Health noted that the poultry poses no food safety risk when handled and cooked correctly. The affected premises are quarantined, and the flock has been depopulated to prevent disease spread, with no birds entering the food system.
