The USDA’s Animal and Plant Health Inspection Service (APHIS) issued a Federal Order Wednesday that requires testing for interstate movement of dairy cattle and mandatory reporting of positive test results.

The order aims to prevent the spread of bovine influenza A virus (BIAV) in response to the detection of the virus in dairy cattle.

Following the confirmation of HPAI in a commercial poultry flock in February 2022, over 1,100 HPAI detections have been identified on poultry farms in the U.S.

Since late March 2024, USDA, along with other agencies and laboratories, investigated the emergence of H5N1 virus in dairy cows. 

Under the Federal Order, dairy cattle must receive a negative test for Influenza A virus at approved laboratories before interstate movement. Positive test results must be reported to USDA APHIS by laboratories and state veterinarians.

The order aims to mitigate the risk of further spread of the virus, which poses a threat to both cattle and poultry, and to ensure the safety of livestock and the agricultural industry.  You can read the federal order HERE.
