Maryland officials detected highly pathogenic H5N1 avian influenza in a commercial broiler flock in Worcester County, with federal laboratory confirmation pending. The affected property was quarantined and the flock is being depopulated; its birds will not enter the food supply.
The depopulation removes poultry from local production and could tighten chicken supply if the outbreak spreads or triggers further culling. Strong biosecurity and limited spread would contain the price impact.
