U.S. officials sequenced the genome of the virus found in poultry on the farm in Oregon and did not identify any changes to the virus that indicate it’s more transmissible to humans. The risk to the public remains low, they said on Wednesday.
The livestock shared water sources, housing and equipment with infected poultry on the farm, officials said. The farm is a non-commercial operation and there is no threat to the U.S. pork supply, they added.
The site has been quarantined and the pigs culled. Other animals, including sheep and goats, remain under surveillance.
