Click to see story on nashvilleledger.comThe United States Department of Agriculture (USDA) will require dairy cattle herds moving across state lines to be tested for bird flu starting on Monday, April 29.

However, federal officials maintain that pasteurized milk is still safe to drink in the United States. The USDA said pasteurization renders the virus unable to infect humans but that more research is underway.
The new rule is an effort to stop the spread of the virus in dairy herds. All laboratories and states must start reporting positive results, any positive tests will prohibit cows from traveling for 30 days and until they test negative for the virus. The USDA will reimburse herd owners for the cost of testing.
Another stipulation includes making herd owners disclose the movement of animals to help with epidemiological investigations. The USDA has said that cow-to-cow transmission is a factor in the spread of the bird flu.
Herds in eight states have registered positive for bird flu in the last month and one person tested positive for the virus in Texas. The person worked on a dairy farm and has since recovered. Texas state officials speculate that wild birds introduced the virus to cattle.

The additional testing requirements indicates that the virus in U.S. cows may be more widespread than previously thought. However, the Biden administration said the efforts are to contain the transmission of the virus and to reduce the threat to livestock.
[LAUREN TAYLOR]
THE U.S. WILL REQUIRE MORE TESTING IN DAIRY COWS AFTER THE FDA ANNOUNCED IT DETECTED TRACES OF BIRD FLU IN GROCERY STORE MILK.
STARTING ON MONDAY, COWS CROSSING STATE LINES MUST BE TESTED.
FEDERAL OFFICIALS MAINTAIN PASTEURIZED MILK SAFE TO DRINK.
THE USDA SAID PASTEURIZATION LEAVES THE VIRUS UNABLE TO INFECT HUMANS.
BUT MORE RESEARCH IS UNDERWAY.
THE NEW RULE IS AN EFFORT TO STOP THE SPREAD OF THE VIRUS IN HERDS OF CATTLE.
ALL LABORATORIES AND STATES MUST NOW REPORT POSITIVE TESTS TO THE USDA.
THE USDA WILL REIMBURSE HERD OWNERS FOR THE COST.
POSITIVE TESTS PROHIBIT COWS FROM TRAVELING FOR 30-DAYS AND UNTIL THEY TEST NEGATIVE.
IT ALSO MAKES HERD OWNERS DISCLOSE THE MOVEMENT OF ANIMALS TO HELP WITH EPIDEMIOLOGIC INVESTIGATIONS.
THE USDA SAID COW-TO-COW TRANSMISSION IS A FACTOR IN THE SPREAD OF BIRD FLU IN DAIRY HERDS.
STATE OFFICIALS SPECULATE WILD BIRDS INTRODUCED THE VIRUS TO CATTLE. HERDS IN EIGHT STATES HAVE REGISTERED POSITIVE TESTS IN THE LAST MONTH.
THE ADDITIONAL TESTING REQUIREMENTS INDICATE THE VIRUS IN U.S. COWS MAY BE MORE WIDESPREAD THAN PREVIOUSLY THOUGHT.
