No poultry disease outbreak in Region Six, tests find

The University of Georgia’s testing of samples taken from a Region Six poultry farm in June did not find any trace of a poultry disease, according to Deputy Chief Executive Officer of the Guyana Livestock Development Authority (GLDA) Dwight Walrond.

“All the tests were negative. That confirms our suspicion that it wasn’t an outbreak of any particular disease, but it was a management issue,” Walrond was reported as saying yesterday by the Government Information Agency (GINA).
