Overview
- The regional government set a 3‑kilometre protection zone and a 10‑kilometre surveillance zone that could be lifted in about a month if no further cases are detected.
- All birds at the affected holding are being culled, and veterinary teams are conducting preventive sampling within a 10‑kilometre radius.
- Officials say the case is pending confirmation by Spain’s Agriculture Ministry and emphasize that human infection is rare.
- Authorities have not disclosed the municipality or flock size, reporting no other poultry farms within 1 kilometre and no animal movements from the site.
- Industry representatives warn the required culling could tighten supply and raise prices for eggs and related products.
