Bird flu hits the Tarn again

Three elevages of ducks and geese have been diagnosed with the H5N8 stain of bird flu in the Tarn this week. Over 7500 birds have been destroyed in a bid to stop the disease spreading and a cordon sanitaire has been placed around sixty or so elevages around Almayrac. The prefecture says no source of the infection has yet been found.
