Press Release · May 28, 2025


The Oregon Department of Agriculture (ODA) has issued emergency rules to reduce the risks of Highly Pathogenic Avian Influenza (HPAI) and Rabbit Hemorrhagic Disease (RHD) during livestock exhibitions this summer. Most of these requirements are already in effect at state fairs, aiming to prevent disease introduction and transmission between livestock and to humans.

Rules Overview
  • The rules apply only to exhibitions with influenza-susceptible animals and rabbits.
  • Influenza-Susceptible Animals: Includes waterfowl, poultry, dairy cattle, and swine.
  • Exhibitions must register with ODA and keep records of animals and exhibitors for 90 days, making the records available to ODA if an outbreak occurs.
  • Exhibitions must consult a “veterinarian of record” and ensure sick animals are not present.
Lactating Dairy Cattle
  • Cannot be milked in public-access areas (minimum 10 feet separation).
  • Must have a negative HPAI test within ten days before arrival unless coming from a farm participating in HPAI surveillance testing. Testing supplies will be provided for free.
Waterfowl
  • Cannot access open water for swimming.
  • Must also have a negative HPAI test within ten days unless coming from a flock certified free of avian influenza under the National Poultry Improvement Plan (NPIP). Free testing is available.
Public Exhibitions:
  • Must provide handwashing stations at exits from animal areas and signage regarding health risks and hygiene.
La ODA aplica normas a las exposiciones ganaderas para mitigar los riesgos de IAAP y RHD

El Departamento de Agricultura de Oregón (ODA) ha publicado normas de emergencia para reducir los riesgos de Influenza Aviar Altamente Patógena (IAAP) y Enfermedad Hemorrágica del Conejo (EHC) durante las exposiciones ganaderas de este verano. La mayoría de estos requisitos ya están en vigor en las ferias estatales, con el fin de evitar la introducción y transmisión de enfermedades entre el ganado y a los seres humanos.

Resumen de las normas
  • Las normas se aplican únicamente a las exposiciones con animales y conejos susceptibles a la influenza.
  • Animales susceptibles a la influenza: Incluye aves acuáticas, aves de corral, ganado lechero y porcino.
  • Las exhibiciones deben inscribirse en la ODA y mantener registros de los animales y expositores durante 90 días, poniendo los registros a disposición de la ODA si se produce un brote.
  • Las exposiciones deben consultar a un «veterinario de registro» y asegurarse de que no haya animales enfermos.
Ganado lechero lactante
  • No pueden ser ordeñadas en áreas de acceso público (separación mínima de 10 pies).
  • Deben tener un resultado negativo en la prueba de la IAAP en los diez días anteriores a su llegada, a menos que procedan de una granja que participe en las pruebas de vigilancia de la IAAP. Los suministros para las pruebas se proporcionarán gratuitamente.
Aves acuáticas
  • No pueden acceder a aguas abiertas para nadar.
  • También deben tener un resultado negativo en la prueba de la IAAP en los diez días anteriores a su llegada, a menos que procedan de una manada certificada libre de la influenza aviar en el marco del Plan Nacional de Mejora Avícola (NPIP). Las pruebas son gratuitas.
Exposiciones públicas:
  • Deben disponer de puestos para lavarse las manos a la salida de las zonas de animales y de señalización sobre los riesgos sanitarios y la higiene.
