Zoomed out map, revealing that birds at 83 farms across six counties in Ohio and Indiana had contracted the virus.

The map highlights 16 farms that were located in the plume and tested positive for the virus. ProPublica found that farms located downwind from Howe’s Hens during this period were about 20 times as likely to contract the virus than those that weren’t.

The map reveals a visual representation of a plume moving northwest, using weather data between Dec. 22 and Dec. 31, that shows where dust could have blown from Howe’s Hens. The map also highlights the dozens of farms within the plume.

A map showing over 200 chicken and turkey farms that lie within a 12-mile radius around Howe’s Hens. Most farms are in Ohio, with some in eastern Indiana.

Even Billy Strings, no college man, absorbs music theory like secondhand smoke from Berklee-trained bandmates. “I’m always asking Alex Hargreaves” — who plays fiddle in his band — “some theory question,” he told me. “I was asking him yesterday, ‘What the hell is this sound?’ He says, ‘It’s Lydian dominant.’ I’m like, ‘Oh.’”

smattering of headlines containing the phrase "enough fentanyl to kill ... "

Governor Youngkin continued: “We’ve interrupted the drug trade by launching Operation FREE, an aggressive law enforcement partnership between federal, state, and local agencies to crack down on the drug trade, which has so far seized enough fentanyl to kill every Virginian ten-times over. We passed new laws banning pill presses, notifying parents of overdose in their child’s school and finally establishing a new felony to hold accountable drug dealers whose victims die from an overdose. The First Lady launched It Only Takes One, a comprehensive education and engagement initiative to give parents, family members, educators, and caretakers the knowledge they need to warn their loved ones about the dangers of fentanyl. And, as part of our Right Help, Right Now initiative we equipped Virginians with over 400,000 life-saving naloxone doses and trained nearly one-hundred thousand on how to use it to save someone who is overdosing.”
