Mexican authorities confirmed highly pathogenic H5N1 avian influenza at a commercial laying-hen farm in Uman, Yucatan, where the flock comprised 225,860 hens. Authorities established a 10-kilometer risk perimeter and depopulated the remaining 224,998 birds after 862 natural mortalities were reported.
The loss of a large laying flock reduces local egg supply and may support egg prices until replacement hens begin laying. Containment measures are intended to limit further spread and reduce the risk of wider poultry supply disruptions.
