EPIDEMIOLOGICAL COMMENTS
Highly pathogenic avian influenza (HPAI) H5N1 Eurasian lineage goose/Guangdong clade 2.3.4.4b has been confirmed in samples from dairy cattle in Idaho (ID), Kansas (KS), Michigan (MI), New Mexico (NM), North Carolina (NC), Ohio (OH), South Dakota (SD) and Texas (TX). Updates to the detections of highly pathogenic avian influenza (HPAI) in livestock can be found at: https://www.aphis.usda.gov/livestock-poultry-disease/avian/avian-influenza/hpai-detections/livestock. On 24 April 2024, The Animal and Plant Health Inspection Service (APHIS), United States Department of Agriculture issued a federal order requiring pre-movement testing and reporting of highly pathogenic avian influenza (HPAI) in livestock. Wildlife detections unrelated to dairy cattle detections are reported in Vermont (VT) and California (CA).

Highly Pathogenic Avian Influenza Detected in Idaho Cattle

The Idaho State Department of Agriculture (ISDA), has confirmed highly pathogenic avian influenza (HPAI) in three Cassia County dairy cattle operations. Additionally, there are two presumptive positive herds in Jerome County.

These are the only confirmed cases of HPAI in dairy cattle operations in Idaho. It is suggested the virus is transmitted from cow-to-cow, in addition to reports indicating cattle acquire the virus from infected birds. The primary concern with an HPAI diagnosis in dairy cattle is on-dairy production losses, as the disease has been associated with decreased milk production.

Symptoms of HPAI in cattle include:
    • Drop in milk production
    • Loss of appetite
    • Changes in manure consistency
    • Thickened or colostrum-like milk
    • Low-grade fever

ISDA Response

For decades, Idaho has worked diligently to implement industry-driven programs that mitigate the transmission of diseases that cause on-farm economic losses. ISDA’s response to the detection of HPAI in cattle aligns with standard ISDA animal disease detection procedure.

A quarantine is issued for any HPAI positive dairy facility which prohibits movement of livestock on or off the infected premises without written authorization from ISDA. ISDA continually monitors the health and wellness of dairy cattle on any affected dairy premises. These are open cases, ISDA is continuing to investigate via additional sampling.

The infected cattle are quarantined from the rest of the herd on the facilities. Pasteurized milk from affected cows does not present a human health concern, and the cows on the dairy will continue to produce milk and all animals will be cared for normally.

This is an evolving situation, and additional updates will be provided by ISDA as they become available.

What Livestock Producers Can Do
    • Enhance biosecurity measures (see below information below).
    • Closely monitor your herd for the following symptoms:
      • Fever
      • Lethargy
      • Loss of appetite
      • Constipation
      • Thickened or colostrum-like milk
      • Decreased milk production
If your cattle appear to be infected:
  1. Contact your local veterinarian immediately.
  2. After talking with your veterinarian, fill out the HPAI Livestock Screen.
  3. Once the screen is submitted, an ISDA veterinarian will review the screen to determine if ISDA assistance is needed. Direct assistance from ISDA will be dependent on the severity and size of the herd as well as the availability of ISDA veterinarians.

Consumer Health

At this stage, there is no concern about the safety of the commercial milk supply or that this circumstance poses a risk to consumer health. The pasteurization process of heating milk to a high temperature ensures milk and dairy products can be safely consumed, as confirmed by the Centers for Disease Control (CDC). Pasteurization has continually proven to successfully inactivate bacteria and viruses, like influenza, in milk. Dairies are also required to only allow milk from healthy animals to enter the food supply chain.

US - USDA: "Highly Pathogenic Avian Influenza (HPAI) H5N1 Detections in Alpacas" - May 28, 2024

  1. Alpacas
Highly Pathogenic Avian Influenza (HPAI) H5N1 Detections in Alpacas


Last Modified: May 28, 2024

The National Veterinary Services Laboratories (NVSL) confirmed the detection of Highly Pathogenic Avian Influenza (HPAI) H5N1 in alpacas from a premises where HPAI-affected poultry were depopulated in May 2024. While this HPAI confirmation is not unexpected due to the previous HPAI detection on the premises, the high amount of virus in the environment, and co-mingling of multiple livestock species on-farm, it is the first HPAI detection in alpacas.

NVSL has confirmed that the viral genome sequence for these samples is the same sequence currently circulating in dairy cattle (B3.13), which is consistent with sequences from the depopulated poultry on this premises. (NVSL PCR confirmation was completed on May 16. APHIS reported the confirmation to the World Organisation for Animal Health and on the HPAI livestock website upon completion of additional gene sequencing, per APHIS policy for disease detections in new species.):tiphat:

Alpacas infected with H5N1 avian flu in Idaho


Lisa Schnirring


47 minutes ago.


The US Department of Agriculture (USDA) Animal and Plant Health Inspection Service (APHIS) today announced that tests have confirmed highly pathogenic H5N1 avian influenza in alpacas at an Idaho farm where the virus had struck a poultry flock.

The detection marks the first positive findings in alpacas, which are members of the camelid family.

Detection of the virus in the alpacas isn't unexpected due to the high amount of virus in the environment and the comingling of multiple livestock species on the farm, APHIS said.

The detection of the virus in farm animals on an affected poultry farm is similar to the H5N1 detection in baby goats at a Minnesota farm that experienced a poultry outbreak.

Virus found in 4 of farm's 18 alpacas


Genetic sequencing at the USDA's National Veterinary Services Laboratory (NVSL) reveals that the virus that infected the alpacas is the same B3.13 H5N1 genome circulating in dairy cows and is also the same genotype that infected poultry at the Idaho farm.

APHIS said the poultry on the Idaho farm were depopulated this month.

According to a notification from the World Organization for Animal Health, the alpacas and poultry were from a backyard farm in Jerome County. The virus was detected in 4 of the farm's 18 alpacas. The report said the alpacas had close contact with the infected birds.

H5N1 found in New Mexico feral cats


In other developments, US officials also reported H5N1 in two feral cats found dead in Curry County, New Mexico, according to a WOAH notification. A local veterinarian submitted the cats for testing because there were H5N1-affected dairy farms in Curry County.

However, the cats' location wasn't directly related to a dairy or poultry farm with a known H5N1 outbreak.

Detections of H5N1 in cats at dairy farms experiencing outbreaks have recently been reported in multiple states.

H5N1 strikes another Michigan dairy farm


The Michigan Department of Agriculture and Rural Development (MDARD) today said tests have confirmed H5N1 in another herd in Clinton County. Tests were conducted at the Michigan State University Veterinary Diagnostic Laboratory, and samples will be sent to the USDA's NVSL for additional confirmation.

The positive test marks the third outbreak in Clinton County and Michigan's 22nd such outbreak in dairy cattle.

Nationally, H5N1 has been detected in 67 dairy herds across nine states. In an update today, the USDA added 3 more detections—one each from Idaho, Texas, and Michigan.
