HPAI H7N8 in NSW, Australia
19 June, 2024
The New South Wales (NSW) Government has announced an outbreak of highly pathogenic avian influenza (HPAI) H7N8 at a poultry egg farm in the Hawkesbury district. This H7N8 strain is distinct from the one currently affecting Victoria. Initial indications suggest this outbreak might be a separate incident, possibly originating from wild birds.
