BBC News - Bird flu found at Bernard Matthews farm in Suffolk

Bird flu is back

A company spokesman said: "Bernard Matthews can confirm that Defra have undertaken tests for avian influenza on one of its farms following notification by the company after some birds showed signs of ill health over the weekend.
"The tests have detected the presence of an avian influenza virus, but Defra have confirmed it is not the highly pathogenic types H5 or H7."
At least there's no horsemeat in their Turkey
