"Backyard" chickens and salmonella

10 years ago

Just because you name them doesn't mean they are safe to cuddle.

The CDC, multiple states, and the U.S. Department of Agriculture’s Animal
and Plant Health Inspection Service (USDA-APHIS) are investigating eight
separate multistate outbreaks of human Salmonella infections linked to contact with live poultry in backyard flocks.
