Avian flu latest

The NHS website explains what Avian flu (bird flu) is.

Great Britain (England, Scotland and Wales) is in an avian influenza prevention zone (AIPZ). This means all bird keepers in Great Britain (whether they have pet birds, commercial flocks or just a few birds in a backyard flock) are required by law to take biosecurity precautions.

GOV.UK has the latest situation in England for avian flu. This includes what biosecurity rules bird keepers must follow to prevent avian flu.

Avian flu is not connected with coronavirus (Covid-19).
