Amsterdam-Sana (ST): The Dutch government announced today that health authorities have culled about 44,000 turkeys on a farm in the south of the country, after discovering a highly contagious strain of bird flu.
Reuters quoted the ministry as saying in a statement “A ban on transportation has been imposed on ten other neighboring farms”.
More than a dozen cases of the deadly strain of bird flu were recorded in the Netherlands last month, after dozens of cases earlier in the year.
