State of Indiana
Response to
Highly Pathogenic Avian Influenza
2025
(16 November 2025)
Update #69
LATEST
County & Flock #: LaGrange 36
Flock Size: 8,666
Type of Operation: Commercial Egg Layer
Status: Quarantined
10km Control Area: Active (Portions of LaGrange, Elkhart, and Noble counties
in Indiana)
20km Surveillance Zone: Active (Portions of LaGrange, Elkhart, and Noble
counties in Indiana)
STATEWIDE SUMMARY
For details, including data and total premises affected since the ongoing incident
began in 2022, visit BOAH’s HPAI dashboard: https://www.in.gov/boah/speciesinfo...thogenic-avian-influenza/2022-2023-case-list/ .
BACKGROUND
The influenza virus has continued to be active throughout parts of the United States.
HPAI has been identified on more than 1700 premises in all 50 states since
February 2022. Wild birds infected with HPAI have been found from coast to coast
in various species, including waterfowl (ducks, swans, geese, gulls, etc.), raptors
(hawks and eagles), as well as other common species (American robin, common
raven, wild turkey). Many other mammalian species, including humans, dairy cattle
and wildlife, have also been diagnosed with the virus.
The current, ongoing HPAI event is the United States’ largest animal health
emergency in history.
RESPONSE
As part of existing avian influenza response plans, federal and state partners are
working jointly on additional surveillance and testing in areas around the affected
flocks. The United States has the strongest avian influenza surveillance program in
the world, and USDA is actively working with its partners to look for the disease in
commercial poultry operations, live bird markets and in migratory wild bird
populations.
NON-COMMERCIAL FLOCK SURVEILLANCE: Testing of nearby flocks is
important to verify the virus has not spread in the area. BOAH staff will be reaching
out to flock owners within surveillance zones to offer testing.
WILD BIRD SURVEILLANCE: USDA Wildlife Services and Indiana Department of
Natural Resources are assisting with surveillance of wild birds in and near the
control areas. Detections of highly pathogenic avian influenza in wild birds can be
found online here.
DAIRY FARM SURVEILLANCE: Indiana Grade A dairy farms in control areas
will be tested for HPAI. Lactating dairy cattle must have a negative test before
interstate movement under a federal order. USDA has expanded surveillance
through testing milk at the farm or processor level to establish the health status of
herds, as well as states.

State of Indiana
Response to
Highly Pathogenic Avian Influenza
2025
(16 November 2025)
Update #69
LATEST
County & Flock #: LaGrange 36
Flock Size: 8,666
Type of Operation: Commercial Egg Layer
Status: Quarantined
10km Control Area: Active (Portions of LaGrange, Elkhart, and Noble counties
in Indiana)
20km Surveillance Zone: Active (Portions of LaGrange, Elkhart, and Noble
counties in Indiana)
STATEWIDE SUMMARY
For details, including data and total premises affected since the ongoing incident
began in 2022, visit BOAH’s HPAI dashboard: https://www.in.gov/boah/speciesinfo...thogenic-avian-influenza/2022-2023-case-list/ .
BACKGROUND
The influenza virus has continued to be active throughout parts of the United States.
HPAI has been identified on more than 1700 premises in all 50 states since
February 2022. Wild birds infected with HPAI have been found from coast to coast
in various species, including waterfowl (ducks, swans, geese, gulls, etc.), raptors
(hawks and eagles), as well as other common species (American robin, common
raven, wild turkey). Many other mammalian species, including humans, dairy cattle
and wildlife, have also been diagnosed with the virus.
The current, ongoing HPAI event is the United States’ largest animal health
emergency in history.
RESPONSE
As part of existing avian influenza response plans, federal and state partners are
working jointly on additional surveillance and testing in areas around the affected
flocks. The United States has the strongest avian influenza surveillance program in
the world, and USDA is actively working with its partners to look for the disease in
commercial poultry operations, live bird markets and in migratory wild bird
populations.
NON-COMMERCIAL FLOCK SURVEILLANCE: Testing of nearby flocks is
important to verify the virus has not spread in the area. BOAH staff will be reaching
out to flock owners within surveillance zones to offer testing.
WILD BIRD SURVEILLANCE: USDA Wildlife Services and Indiana Department of
Natural Resources are assisting with surveillance of wild birds in and near the
control areas. Detections of highly pathogenic avian influenza in wild birds can be
found online here.
DAIRY FARM SURVEILLANCE: Indiana Grade A dairy farms in control areas
will be tested for HPAI. Lactating dairy cattle must have a negative test before
interstate movement under a federal order. USDA has expanded surveillance
through testing milk at the farm or processor level to establish the health status of
herds, as well as states.

PUBLIC ADVISORIES
Food Safety
Avian influenza does not present a food safety risk; cooked poultry and eggs and
pasteurized dairy products are safe to eat.
Animal Health
Hobby poultry owners are encouraged to be aware of the signs of avian influenza
and report illness and/or death to the USDA Healthy Birds Hotline: 866-536-7593.
Callers will be routed to a state or federal veterinarian in Indiana for a case
assessment. Dead birds should be double-bagged and refrigerated for possible
testing.
Signs include: sudden death without clinical signs; lack of energy or appetite;
decreased egg production; soft-shelled or misshapen eggs; swelling or purple
discoloration of head, eyelids, comb, hocks; nasal discharge; coughing; sneezing;
lack of coordination; and diarrhea. A great resource for backyard bird health
information is online at: www.aphis.usda.gov/aphis/ourfocus/animalhealth/animal-
disease-information/avian/defend-the-flock-program/dtf-resources/dtf-resources.
Situation updates and status reports about ongoing avian influenza activities, along
with critical disease-related information, will be posted online at:

Wild Bird Health
More information about avian influenza and wild birds: https://www.in.gov/dnr/fish-
and-wildlife/wildlife-resources/wildlife-diseases-in-indiana/avian-flu-bird-flu/
Human Health
Recent detections of highly pathogenic avian influenza A H5N1 viruses (H5N1 bird
flu) in wild birds and poultry pose a low risk to the health of the general public.
Human infections are most likely to be rare and happen in people with recreational
or occupational exposures involving prolonged, unprotected close contact with
infected birds or contaminated environments. The Indiana Department of Health
(IDOH) and local health departments (LHD) monitor people who have been exposed
to test-positive animals for signs of influenza-like illness. To date, none have had
evidence of infection or illness associated with AI virus.
IDOH offers the following guidance documents for poultry growers and emergency
responders to protect their health:
