A vendor unloads chickens from a truck at an empty poultry market in Siliguri on March 6, 2020. – India’s poultry industry is reeling under a severe crisis after sales dropped nearly 80 percent on the back of false rumours that chickens are carriers of the coronavirus, officials said on March 6.

AFP’s FactCheck service debunked one of the claims — shared thousands of times on different platforms — that said coronavirus has been discovered in broiler chickens in Mumbai.
