OCEAN CITY (AP) - The state Department of Agriculture says two ducks on a farm in southern Worcester County have tested positive for a form of the avian flu.
But officials say the strain can´t spread to chickens and isn´t a threat to the poultry industry.
Random tests identified the sick ducks, but further testing has found no other ducks with the disease.
