Having trouble logging in with Google or Microsoft?
If you're using the Google or Microsoft button to log in and receive an invalid password error, please note that we are unable to assist with those login credentials. These accounts are managed by Google and Microsoft, so any issues must be resolved directly through their account recovery tools.
We can only assist with direct logins—this means logging in by entering your username or email and password in the fields above and clicking the "Log in" button. If you created an account directly on this site (not using Google or Microsoft), we can help you reset your password via the "Lost password?" link.
The response operation can last from days to months depending on the magnitude of the outbreak. While every situation is different, these general procedures will begin with confirmation of the avian influenza virus.3
Advisers will take samples from your poultry.
Samples will be sent to USDA-approved laboratories where diagnostic tests will verify disease status.
Positive samples are then sent to the National Veterinary Services Laboratory (NVSL) for confirmation.
NVSL can verify the presence of avian influenza, the specific viral subtype, and its pathogenicity (low pathogenic or highly pathogenic).
