   Multiple Arizona news outlets are noting the infected dairy that the   
   USDA had confirmed June 24th, but the state did not release the   
   information until July 4th.  This Arizona news article is incorrect.   
   This is not the second infected herd, but the 5th infected herd in the   
   state.  The first herd was confirmed on Valentine's day Feb 14 just   
   after the Nevada herds and dairy worker were confirmed to have been   
   infected with the D1.1 genotype late Jan.  That herd was also confirmed   
   to be infected with the D1.1 genotype.  Arizona is not releasing   
   accurate information to the public.   
      
   They put the herds under quarantine, but they did not restrict dairy   
   worker movements, so 5 herds have been infected, and multiple commercial   
   egg farms in the same county.  It is just crazy that dairy worker   
   quarantine is not required at this time.
