What happened

Some supportReported by 1 outlet

Authorities in South Australia asked poultry producers to voluntarily house their free-range birds to protect them from the spread of H5N1 bird flu. While confirmed cases of the virus have recently decreased in the state, authorities maintain that the virus is still spreading. Some producers are now releasing their hens again, despite the state government's voluntary housing recommendation remaining in place until November 20.
