Quarantine authorities in North Gyeongsang Province confirmed that the farm in Gyeongju acquired 6,700 chickens from a farm in Pyeongtaek, Gyeonggi Province, where the highly pathogenic strain was detected last Tuesday.
The Animal and Plant Quarantine Agency found the virus in droppings at the farm. Local quarantine authorities have started culling 500,000 chickens at this and nearby farms."
