Originating from a single flock in
the Richfield area of Juniata
County, the four flocks were
discovered to contain avian in
fluenza antibodies during routine
egg sampling conducted as a part
of the ongoing surveillance
program within the quarantine
zone. Depopulation began on
August 31, with one of the two
flocks located in Willow Street, and
a flock located in Paradise was
destroyed on September 5. The
final depopulations concluded this
past week with a Shippensburg

had contracted the vims sometime
in the past, USDA maintains that
eradication of sero-positive birds is
necessary insurance against
further outbreaks.
“We feel very strongly that birds
with antibodies represent a
potential reservoir of reinfection,”
said Adams, adding that USDA’s
policy is “based on the best
scientific opinions we could
gather.”
The policy has resulted in the
depopulation of two million birds in
about 50 Pennsylvania flocks.

According to Pa. Poultry
Federation spokesman, Tim
Allwein, the owners of all four of
the recently depopulated flocks
will receive federal indemnity,
although the Pa. Department of
Agriculture has not yet ap
propriated the additional funding
needed for cleaning and disin
fecting the four premises.
“They’ve assured us that money
will be available,’’Allwein said,
“although the rate may be slightly
lower than the C&D rate for high
path flocks.”
The recent discovery of the four
sero-positive flocks has raised
questions within the poultry in
dustry concerning the wisdom of
bringing outside birds into the zone
