The South African Poultry Association affirms the safety of consuming eggs and poultry products during the festive season. Despite culling six-million layer hens during the earlier avian flu outbreak, the strain is now less prevalent. The association says properly cooked eggs pose no risk of avian flu infection. It enacted stringent bio-security measures promptly in response to the situation, ensuring the safety of poultry products for South Africans to enjoy their festive meals with confidence.
