Mostly quiet day, AI still spreading in Bangladesh

It's been a quiet few days around AI, not too much in the news. Unfortunately, though, H5N1 is still spreading around Bangladesh.

"The infection was detected at a farm in western Magura district 200 km (125 miles) west of the capital Dhaka and five farms at Savar in the Dhaka district"

"Since the detection of the H5N1 virus on March 22, some 98,000 chickens have been culled on 38 farms in nine districts."
