Pig headed greedy farmers fear they will be punished if any are found. Other articles I've read is the farmers don't want to destroy their animals because they don't get paid fair price for doing so. The get compensated the market price but that's not enough so don't come here and find any sick animals.

In the meantime they enter the food chain.

Though the current strain of the bird flu currently poses a low risk to humans, the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention wants to study the outbreak. Many farmers, however, don’t want the federal government on their property. And some state officials are pushing back — the Texas Department of State Health Services, where the bird flu was first detected, says they haven’t invited the CDC down because they haven’t found a dairy farmer who wants these officials on their land.
