Highly pathogenic avian influenza was detected at a commercial poultry facility in Pierce County, Washington, the state’s first commercial-poultry detection this year. The facility was quarantined and disease-control measures began; eggs from affected birds will be destroyed, and no human cases had been identified at the facility.
The outbreak removes some poultry and egg output from sale, but the affected flock size is not reported, so the likely market effect is localized and uncertain.
