    Outbreak of H5N1 Highly Pathogenic Avian Influenza (HPAI) in poultry has been suspected in Indonesia during the preceeding month. The recent outbreak in Democratic People's Republic of Korea (DPRK) appeared to be caused by H7. Although the number of outbreaks appeared to be falling like last year, the need for vigilance to find potentially new cases and their rapid isolation remains a high priority. Biosecurity in domestic poultry production systems must be checked again during this period

Sporadic outbreaks have been reported in Russia resulting in some deaths/culling of domestic poultry. Resurgence of the disease in China’s main farming areas is also a concern. Human fatalities have been confirmed or suspected in Indonesia, Thailand and Viet Nam. Countries in Europe, Near-East and Africa have started implementing various preventive measures.

    Avian Influenza Disease Emergency: issue No. 27 (28/01/2005)
    Update of the Avian Influenza situation (As of 28/01/2005)
    2005
    Also available in:
    No results found.

    Outbreaks of H5N1 Highly Pathogenic Avian Influenza (HPAI) in poultry were reported in Thailand and Viet Nam, and human cases were reported in Viet Nam during the preceding month. Having lunar New Year day on 9 February, movement of poultry and poultry products will increase in the region. The need for biosecurity of domestic poultry to prevent infection and enhanced early warning in order to detect every additional case are highest during this season to avoid new cases of HPAI in poultry and to minimise the risk to humans.
