PSC Insiders Newsletter, Special AI Update May 17, 2015 |
Hello, PSC Insiders! I wanted to do a special update so I was sure you were all aware of the latest cancellations that have been announced since the last newsletter. I'm hearing about more everyday and this is a unique opportunity to use the speed of the internet to spread information to those who need to know. Please show special support for the organizers of the events who need to make these difficult decisions. None of the cancellation decisions are easy and many of the organizers have been forced to cancel as a precaution so please be respectful and supportive, especially during this time. If we all stick together, we'll get through this. Cancellations since the last newsletter: **All Pennsylvania Fair Poultry Shows are cancelled until further notice. **The MN Board of Animal Health has made the decision to have all poultry shows, swap meets, and poultry at petting zoos be cancelled for the remainder of 2015 due to the Avian Influenza outbreak.
**Poultry from Chippewa, Jefferson, Barron, and Juneau Counties in Wisconsin will not be permitted entry to poultry swaps due to the avian flu outbreak within those counties. There may be restrictions in other parts other parts of the country as well where AI has been reported so please check with the organizers before you attend if you are in the affected areas.
