  Just days after declaring Australia free of bird flu, a new outbreak has been detected at a poultry farm in Victoria.

A new outbreak of the highly pathogenic H7 bird flu has been confirmed at a poultry farm in Victoria, Australia, just days after the country declared the virus had been eradicated. The virus was detected at a farm in Terang, leading to the culling of approximately 80,000 birds to prevent further spread. This recurrence has raised concerns about the effectiveness of biosecurity measures and the potential economic impact on the poultry industry. The outbreak follows a previous incident in February at a farm in Meredith, which was thought to be contained. The re-emergence of the virus underscores the challenges in controlling avian influenza, with authorities now working to trace the source of the infection and reinforce containment strategies.
