Poultry exports stopped until NZ bird flu free

An Otago egg farm is in lockdown and the culling of chickens will start tomorrow after some birds tested positive for a high pathogenic strain of avian bird flu. This is the first time this version of the virus has been discovered in Aotearoa. It's believed the infection has come from local waterfoul and wildbirds. Minister for Biosecurity Andrew Hoggard spoke to Lisa Owen.
