I believe it is, for couple of reasons. One this is high pathogenic avian Influenza, there are 2 forms of avian influenza HPAI and LPAI or low pathogenic avian influenza.
My friend Nick from my volunteer days is vet tech that once worked in a more rural clinic until recently. He is very worried about HPAI. He lives near Mississippi River and has already seen dead & dying ducks and geese near his home. Not just a couple here and there but lots.
We talked about it today his 2 macaws will be staying indoors unless emergency vet visits. Secondly I live in apartment building out door shoes have to come in. We can not leave them public hallways. Hence Lysol spray, plus living ground floor level Bebe will not be going on porch. The ducks and geese come right to my screened in porch.
