Report of HPAI (H5N2) outbreak in northeast Nebraska in 2015 (Knox01 with 3 million layers was subsequently confirmed) ON MAY 28, 2015 Michael Foods hit hard by Nebraska avian influenza cases Three Michael Foods flocks have had confirmed cases of avian influenza while a fourth flock is suspected of being affected by virus About 35 percent of Michael Foods’ egg volume commitments have been affected as a result of recent infections of avian influenza at the company’s Nebraska egg facilities. Post Holdings, which acquired Michael Foods in 2014, stated on May 27 that Michael Foods’ egg supply has been seriously compromised as three company-owned flocks in Nebraska have tested positive for avian influenza. The company did not specifically mention which three flocks were affected, but the USDA’s Animal and Plant Health Inspection Service (APHIS) has reported three confirmed cases of avian influenza in Nebraska – all of which are in Dixon County layer flocks. Nearly 3.6 million birds were affected in those three cases. While those are the only three confirmed cases in Nebraska as of May 27, the Nebraska Department of Agriculture (NDA) on the same day reported that confirmed preliminary testing has shown the presence of another H5N2 avian influenza case in Knox County, Nebraska. According to NDA, the Knox County case involves a flock of 3 million hens, and is owned by the same operator as the three Dixon County cases. In a press release, Post Holdings stated that “Michael Foods continues to take various effective measures to partially mitigate the financial impact, including discontinuation of certain product lines and appropriate pricing actions.” Michael Foods is the sixth largest egg producer in the United States, according to the WATT Global Media Top Companies database. To track confirmed cases of the North American avian influenza outbreak, see WATTAgNet's avian influenza tracker map and bookmark the avian influenza update page for news about and analysis of avian influenza. https://www.wattagnet.com/articles/22701-michael-foods-hit-hard-by-nebraska-avian-influenza-cases

Avian flu case prompts killing of 1.7 million hens in northeast Nebraska MGN image(MGN) By Gina Dvorak Published: Apr. 13, 2022 at 6:02 PM EDT|Updated: 11 minutes ago LINCOLN, Neb. (WOWT) - State and federal agriculture authorities announced Wednesday that Nebraska’s sixth case of avian flu had been found on a hen farm in Dixon County. The case was found among a flock of 1.7 million egg-laying hens in a northeast Nebraska county that are now in the process of being killed, according to a release from the Nebraska and U.S. Departments of Agriculture as well as the Plant Health Inspection Service. It’s the largest flock in the state that has been impacted by highly pathogenic avian influenza, also known as HPAI. With the latest report, HPAI cases around the state have now caused the killing of about 2.7 million birds, including about 970,000 broiler chickens in Butler County, and dozens of other chickens or waterfowl in Merrick, Holt, and Scotts Bluff counties. Millions of birds have also been killed in Iowa in recent months because of bird flu cases found there. Omaha’s Henry Doorly Zoo and Aquarium has also taken precautions to protect its bird populations. Per USDA policy, NDA is also establishing a 6.2-mile control zone around the Dixon County hen farm. HPAI is a highly contagious virus among birds that spreads — through nasal and eye secretions as well as manure, or through contact with contaminated equipment, clothing, or shoes — from flock to flock. The virus can be also transmitted through wild birds without them becoming sick. State Veterinarian Dr. Roger Dudley also said in Wednesday’s release that the authorities had lifted surveillance procedures in Merrick, Holt counties, and the control zone in Butler County as well. State ag authorities encourage anyone who sees signs of bird flu to call them at 402-471-2351; or contact the USDA at 866-536-7593, or reach out to your local veterinarian. Symptoms of HPAI in poultry include sudden death, decreased water consumption, lack of energy and appetite, decreased or odd egg production, signs of a “cold,” incoordination, or diarrhea. https://www.wowt.com/2022/04/13/avian-flu-case-prompts-killing-17-million-hens-northeast-nebraska/
