The Maryland Department of Agriculture has announced a presumptive positive case of H5 Avian Influenza in a commercial broiler farm in Wicomico County.

This is the first case of highly pathogenic H5 Avian Influenza (HPAI) on a commercial poultry farm in Wicomico County this year and the second case in Maryland in 2026.

We continue to encourage flock owners to follow strong biosecurity practices to protect their flocks. Limiting visitors, disinfecting footwear and equipment, securing feed, washing hands, and changing clothes when entering or leaving poultry areas can help reduce the risk of disease.
