Since its emergence in the U.S. in January 2022, highly pathogenic avian influenza has led to over 4 million chickens and turkeys being culled across California.
California's bird flu outbreak has affected nearly a quarter of the state's dairies, prompting quarantines and recalls of raw milk, impacting local food supplies.
The CDC confirms avian influenza primarily spreads through infected birds and can infect humans in rare cases, emphasizing the need for caution regarding poultry.
In response to increasing avian flu cases, California Governor Gavin Newsom declared a state of emergency on December 18 to manage the outbreak.
