A few more birds could be left, but we will kill them off by noon today. |
Chemical treatment should have been done so that dogs, carnivores and insects cannot access the birds. |
Dozens of samples from poultry had been collected after the first outbreak. The results of those are coming out in phases. |
It's an onerous task, but we should finish it by this evening. |
There is no time for niceties. The birds have to be killed as fast as possible. |
They [farm owners] have not chemically treated the pit before dumping the birds. |
Thirteen new areas have been certified. It has been shown that an area that was looking blank between infected areas is also infected. |
We will cull the chicken by wringing their necks and then bury them. The numbers (of birds) this time are less as most of it is backyard poultry. |
