Russia bans import of poultry from U.S. state of Nebraska
http://english.pravda.ru/news/russia/09-08-2007/95864-russia-0

Russia has temporarily banned the import of poultry from the U.S. state of Nebraska, following Japan, Turkey and the Philippines after a turkey flock in one county tested positive for a mild strain of bird flu





Deputy state veterinarian Del Wilmot said Wednesday that the flock shows no sign of illness and was being prepared for slaughter and entry into the food supply.

The U.S. Department of Agriculture and trade groups for the poultry industry have said no human cases of bird flu have ever been traced to eating properly cooked poultry or eggs.
