No further Avain Flu outbreaks detected

VANCOUVER — The Canadian Food Inspection Agency has revoked five primary control zones for the highly contagious avian flu.

It says this happens when post-outbreak surveillance is completed and no further cases of avian influenza are detected.

The agency’s website showed the number of birds that have been impacted in the province as of Wednesday was 3-million-657-thousand.

It says that while the virus affects birds, there is no evidence it can be passed to humans who consume poultry products.
