一 |     DES MOINES, Iowa -- Two commercial turkey farms in Iowa have been hit by the reemerging highly pathogenic bird flu, causing about 100,000 birds to be killed to prevent the disease from spreading.The Iowa Department of Agriculture reported the infected commercial poultry flocks within weeks of a turkey farm in South Dakota and one in Utah reporting the first outbreaks in the U.S. since April, raising concerns that more would follow. The U.S. Department of Agriculture shows 12 commercial flocks in South Dakota, Utah and Minnesota have been affected in October, totaling more than 500,000 birds.Bird flu last year cost U.S. poultry producers nearly 59 million birds across 47 states, including egg-laying chickens and turkeys and chickens raised for meat, making it the country’s deadliest outbreak ever, according to USDA figures. The outbreak caused spikes in egg and turkey prices for consumers and cost the government over $660 million.Iowa was the hardest-hit state last year, with nearly 16 million birds lost, but there hadn’t been a case reported in the state since March.Iowa's department reported Friday that one commercial turkey facility of about 50,000 birds in Buena Vista County was affected. Another facility of about 47,500 turkeys in neighboring Pocahontas County was confirmed Monday.In Guthrie County, about 50 backyard birds were also infected, the department said.Before last week, the only reports of bird flu in recent months in the U.S. in recent months were sporadic appearances in backyard flocks or among wild birds such as ducks, geese and eagles. While wild birds often show no symptoms of avian influenza, infections in them are a concern to the poultry industry as migration season gets underway. Migrating birds can spread the disease to vulnerable commercial flocks.Bird flu infections are relatively rare in humans and aren’t considered a food safety risk. But as it hits other species, including some mammals, scientists fear the virus could evolve to spread more easily among people. Cambodia this week reported its third human death from bird flu this year.。    视频加载中...当地时间15日,韩国警方对总统警卫处警卫本部长李光宇(音)发布逮捕令。15日凌晨,韩国高级公职人员犯罪调查处(公调处)人员抵达位于首尔市龙山区的韩国总统官邸,出示法院签发的对总统尹锡悦的逮捕令,与总统警卫处人员在总统官邸外发生对峙。执法人员试图进入官邸,同阻挡人员发生冲撞、推搡。韩国警方开始驱离现场阻挡人员。尹锡悦代理律师以及执政党国会议员、尹锡悦支持者等在官邸外形成人墙,阻挡执法人员进入官邸。尹锡悦律师团在官邸入口处阻止公调处调查人员进入官邸区,与调查人员形成对峙,并称逮捕令非法。公调处警告称,妨碍公务执行人员将可能被视为现行犯遭逮捕。(总台记者 张昀)(来源:央视新闻)更多精彩资讯请在应用市场下载“极目新闻”客户端,未经授权请勿转载,欢迎提供新闻线索,一经采纳即付报酬。24小时报料热线027-86777777。
