Bird Flu Outbreak – Are eggs and other farm products safe to eat?

Coles has implemented purchasing limits on eggs after hundreds of thousands of chickens have been euthanized, and quarantine zones have been set up around five farms near Meredith and Terang in Victoria as a result of the nation’s largest outbreak of bird flu.
