Can you see them doing blood tests in such a wide spread contagion? I might be wrong, but what I saw on the SOB thread and Facebook page was "do a test, come back in a few weeks and kill chickens". I would doubt if they are actually testing more than a small sample of the collected swabs. A, kill em all and let God sort it out kind of thing. Sad, but very likely the case.Good question. A "recovered" bird would test positive both for antibodies (blood test) and swab tests for direct virus at shedding areas.
