Poultry Show Ban as Precaution in Iowa by State Dept
The Iowa Department of Agriculture imposed a precautionary ban on poultry shows and exhibitions last Wednesday. Dr. C. D. Lee of Iowa State College notes no Newcastle disease cases officially reported in Iowa, though nearby states have seen outbreaks. The measure aims to protect the industry from a costly outbreak. Newcastle disease is highly fatal to chickens and turkeys and not transmissible to humans via eggs or meat. First identified in 1926, it spread globally before appearing in the United States in 1944 in California. Mortality in the U S has been lower than abroad, but the threat remains significant. Early signs in birds include reduced appetite and weakness. later, nervous-system symptoms may appear. Control relies on strict sanitary practices, disposal by burning, embargoes on infected materials, and quarantines of affected farms.
