Biosecurity is always important. The key biosecurity points
outlined here are critical to prevent or slow the spread of highly
pathogenic avian influenza (HPAI) H5N1 between dairy and poultry
premises. The virus can spread through the movement of cattle,
vehicles, equipment, milk, and people from affected locations.
Dairy farms are facing significant milk losses, while poultry farms
experience devastating death losses. People in contact with
infected cows are also at risk of infection. Implementing and
following biosecurity measures can help protect cattle, poultry,
other animals, and human health.
This document outlines biosecurity measures for dairy premises
to prevent introduction or spread of the H5N1 virus. Always follow
Federal and State-specific biosecurity requirements. Additional
Federal, State, and local biosecurity requirements may apply.
