Lindy Froebel with NTF shares her opinion: "Us must strengthen its toolkit to outpace HPAI"

"To truly get ahead of this disease, we need to continue expanding the tools available, and challenging ourselves to act with urgency, embrace innovation and globally lead with bold, science-driven decisions that move beyond the status quo.

This includes advancing science-based approaches to HPAI vaccination and ensuring that any new tools are implemented in a way that supports both animal health and a more resilient supply chain without significantly compromising access to international trade. These are complex issues that require thoughtful coordination across government, industry and global partners."

Lindy Froebel of the National Turkey Federation says the industry has strengthened biosecurity, surveillance and coordination with USDA, but the persistence of HPAI shows that the U.S. will need to expand science‑based tools to stay ahead of the virus.
