NEWS UPDATE: The Department of Agriculture declares the province of Benguet free from avian flu.
The number of provinces with confirmed cases is now down to 9.
“Immediate depopulation, cleaning and
disinfection, mobility restrictions and surveillance in areas surrounding affected farms including stricter biosecurity that soon yielded negative results led to DA’s decision to declare Benguet free from the dreaded avian disease,” says DA. | via Iya Gozum/Rappler rplr.co/philippines![](https://xpresschronicle.com/wp-content/uploads/2024/01/WONDER-SPRAY-ADS2.png)
