No cases have been detected in New York livestock to date, and the USDA continues to confirm that there is no threat to human health. Pasteurized milk and dairy products remain safe to consume as pasteurization kills harmful microbes and pathogens in milk, including the influenza virus, and there is also no concern regarding the consumption of properly cooked meat products.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><strong>State Agriculture Commissioner Richard A. Ball said,&nbsp;<\/strong>\u201cWhile we have not seen any cases of HPAI in livestock here in New York State, we\u2019re monitoring the situation closely and are in communication with our farmers, veterinarians, and partners at USDA and in other states. The temporary import requirements we\u2019ve put into place will help us to ensure that animals coming into New York are healthy and are not from affected premises, so that our animals here in New York can continue to remain safe. We encourage our farmers to continue practicing good biosecurity and to stay in touch with us and their veterinarians as the situation evolves.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><strong>The temporary import requirements for dairy cattle into New York State are:<\/strong><strong><\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>importation of dairy cattle from a premises with a confirmed case of HPAI or a premises under investigation as a suspect premises is\u00a0<strong>prohibited<\/strong>;<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>dairy cattle imported from affected states must be accompanied by a Certificate of Veterinary Inspection (CVI) issued within\u00a0<strong>10 days prior to entry<\/strong>\u00a0into the state; and<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>CVIs issued for dairy cattle from affected states must include the statement:\u00a0<em>\u201cAll animals identified on the Certificate of Veterinary (CVI) have been examined and do not originate from a premises with a confirmed detection of Highly Pathogenic Avian Influenza, or that is currently under investigation as a suspect premises.\u201d<\/em><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">These requirements will remain in place until further notice.<strong><\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">HPAI was confirmed in dairy cattle in Texas in late March, and has since spread to Kansas, New Mexico, Michigan, Idaho, Ohio, North Carolina, and South Dakota, and was also diagnosed in young goats in Minnesota on a premises with HPAI-infected poultry.
