State of Indiana Response to
Highly Pathogenic Avian Influenza
Note: New information is highlighted in BOLD ITALIC type.
STATEWIDE SUMMARY:
Total number of affected premises =6
Total number of affected counties = 2
Premises by County/Number of flocks
Dubois: 4
Greene: 2
Total number of birds affected in Indiana
Commercial Turkeys: 171,260
CURRENT SITUATION
Avian influenza has been detected in an additional commercial poultry flock.
DUBOIS4: Laboratory testing of a commercial flock of turkeys in Dubois County has identified H5 avian
influenza virus. This is considered a presumptive-positive case, and samples are being verified at the USDA
National Veterinary Services Laboratory (NVSL) in Iowa. This is the sixth farm (known as Dubois4) in Indiana to
be diagnosed with avian influenza. Pending verification test results should indicate if the virus is the same as
the index farm diagnosed on Feb. 9 and if the virus is highly pathogenic.
Depopulation efforts are underway on the premises, which houses 16,479 birds.
The location of Dubois4 is approximately 6/10 of a mile south from the Dubois3 site; therefore, a sixth 10-km
circle control area has been established. All commercial poultry within this control area will be
quarantined and tested regularly for the duration of this event (i.e., until the control area is lifted).

INDIANAPOLIS - Avian influenza has been detected in a northern Indiana duck farm, state officials said Thursday, marking the disease’s spread to a third poultry species.
Laboratory testing of a commercial duck flock in Elkhart County has come back as presumptively positive for the virus, the Indiana State Board of Animal Health said. The samples are being verified at the U.S. Department of Agriculture’s National Veterinary Services Laboratory in Iowa.
The duck flock has an estimated 4,000 birds, the agency said.
The animal health board in an announcement Thursday night did not say whether the ducks would be destroyed, as happened with six turkey farms in southern Indiana’s Dubois and Greene counties...

INDIANAPOLIS (WISH) — A Johnson County hobby flock of chickens, ducks and peafowl is the latest in Indiana to contract avian influenza, the State Board of Animal Health says.
It’s the first report of the bird flu in the Indianapolis area this year.
In a Monday update, the Indiana Board of Animal Health says the hobby flock’s 41 birds will be “depopulated” while the site is quarantined. The specific location of the Johnson County flock was not provided.
The board says its staff will reach out to residents near the Johnson County site to schedule testing of birds to ensure the virus is not present. Hobby poultry owners in Johnson County should contact the board at 317-544-2387 to schedule free testing...

2022 avian influenza outbreak hits 11th flock in Indiana
by: Gregg Montgomery
Posted: Jun 2, 2022 / 08:12 PM EST / Updated: Jun 2, 2022 / 11:22 PM EST
INDIANAPOLIS (WISH) — A flock of about 100 birds in the Fort Wayne area is the latest with avian influenza, testing determined on Thursday.
The Indiana State Board of Animal Health says the Allen County flock’s owner noticed an unexplained death of eight birds in less than 24 hours and called the federal Health Birds Hotline. The flock is a commercial poultry operation that supplies eggs for some households, state officials say. The announcement from the Board of Animal Health did not say what type of birds are involved. A quarantine has been been put in place around the Allen County operation. Other nearby flocks will be tested.
The flock is the second in Allen County and the 11th in Indiana to record positive tests for bird flu this year. The 2022 bird flu outbreak is Indiana’s largest in years, part of the worst outbreak in the United States since 2015.
Rising prices for eggs has been one effect of the outbreak, although avian influenza does not pose a food safety risk.
Here’s data on bird flu outbreaks so far this year in Indiana:...

Commercial flocks continue to deal with avian flu outbreak
By Clayton Baumgarth
Posted October 21, 2022
An outbreak of avian flu continues to be an issue for turkey and duck farmers.
This highly pathogenic bird flu first broke out in commercial poultry flocks in February. Since then, its effected six turkey farms in Dubois and Greene counties, three duck farms in northern Indiana and several backyard flocks.
President of the Indiana State Poultry Association Becky Joniskan says about 500,000 birds have been affected in Indiana. “We produce over 20 million turkeys a year,” she said. “So when you look at the numbers, it doesn't look significant. But when it is your farm, it is the world.”
Farmers that lost their flock to the disease can receive help through the State Board of Animal Health and the USDA via an indemnity fund that pays out a percentage of the value of their birds...

Martin Co. commercial farm depopulated

Updated: Dec 14, 2022 / 12:08 PM EST
*Editors Note: The Indiana BOAH initially listed this flock as being located in Daviess County. The board has since issued a correction, that the flock was located in Martin County. The story has been updated to reflect this change.
MARTIN COUNTY, Ind. (WTWO/WAWV) — Another 27,000 birds have been culled to prevent the possible spread of bird flu among commercial turkey populations in the Wabash Valley.
According to the Indiana State Board of Animal Health, the flock was determined to be at high risk for exposure to Highly Pathogenic Avian Influenza (H5N1), commonly called bird flu.
Earlier this week another flock of 11,394 turkeys was depopulated in Daviess County after a number of turkeys tested presumptive positive for bird flu. The USDA National Veterinary Services Laboratory later confirmed the diagnosis of the H5N1 virus in the initial flock. According to officials, this new flock from Martin County was located on a production site that is associated with the original flock that tested positive.
Due to the risk of disease spread, the 27,083 birds located at this second site were depopulated and the property has been quarantined.
The first case of H5N1 since 2016 was confirmed in Indiana on Feb. 9 of this year in a flock in Dubois County. To date, 11 commercial flocks have been affected by the spread of bird flu this year with five non-commercial flocks affected as well. 210,210 commercial turkeys have been depopulated as a result, with 17,703 commercial ducks also culled...https://www.mywabashvalley.com/news/local-news/second-daviess-co-commercial-farm-depopulated/
