H5N2 avian influenza virus has been confirmed at a sixth commercial turkey farm in South Dakota.
The U.S. Department of Agriculture has confirmed the H5N2 strain of avian influenza in a flock of 33,300 birds in Spink County. The confirmation means the virus will have led to the deaths of about 289,000 birds in South Dakota since it appeared in the state last month.
