Abstract
PULLORUM disease has been virtually eliminated from breeding and hatchery poultry flocks in Western Australia by the annual blood-testing of all birds and the destruction of reactors.
Only 222 reactors were found in a total of 170,474 birds tested this season—an incidence of infection of only 0.13 per cent.
