The FDA said milk samples from areas with infected herds of dairy cows are more likely to test positive.
"In the rare event that contaminated milk does enter the supply chain, pasteurization effectively kills viruses even if traces of the virus remain detectable."

Dairy cattle moving interstate must adhere to conditions specified by the USDA's Animal and Plant Health Inspection Service .
