Georgia officials announced Wednesday that a second commercial poultry flock in the state had been found with a case of Highly Pathogenic Avian Influenza (HPAI).

A second commercial case of avian influenza, or the “bird flu,” has been confirmed in northeast Georgia, according to the Georgia Department of Agriculture.

The announcement that a case of Highly Pathogenic Avian Influenza has been found in a second flock comes less than a week after the Georgia Department of Agriculture announced a case in a flock about 200 yards away from the newly confirmed case, according to a state release.
