About the Event
During this webinar, we’ll discuss what can be done to protect against highly pathogenic avian influenza (HPAI) and other zoonotic diseases that have the potential to disrupt not only our food supply but the entire agriculture economy. We will discuss how federal policies like the farm bill’s National Animal Vaccine and Veterinary Countermeasures Bank and vaccine research being done by the U.S. Department of Agriculture are critical to protecting livestock and safeguarding the world’s food supply both now and in the future.
