The move comes as authorities grapple with the rapid spread of the virus among dairy herds
The U.S. issued a federal order on Friday mandating that the national milk supply be tested for bird flu, Agriculture Secretary Tom Vilsack told Reuters, as authorities seek to grapple with rapid spread of the virus among dairy herds.
The USDA first announced it would begin national milk testing in October after a push from industry and veterinary groups for stronger surveillance of the virus, but had not detailed the extent of the program or how it would be implemented. The USDA currently only requires testing of lactating dairy cattle moving across state lines, a requirement laid out in its only other federal bird flu order issued in April.
