                    A first case of highly pathogenic avian influenza was confirmed for the first time this fall in North Jeolla province. An analysis of the faeces of wild birds, taken from Buan, showed that it was avian influenza H5N1.

                    It is the fifth case identified nationwide since Oct. 10, and the one reported in Cheonan, South Chungcheong Province.

                    In order to stem its transmission in the south-west of the territory, movements in the 35 poultry farms within a radius of ten kilometers around the outbreak will be controlled for 21 days. Health authorities plan to disinfect the premises and examine their 2.1 million poultry. Men and cars will also not be allowed to access the area 500m from where the virus was detected.

                      Pyeongtaek also reports AI suspicion… H5N6 type confirmed by Hwaseong laying hen farms

                      Following Hwaseong, Gyeonggi-do, Pyeongtaek also received reports of suspected avian influenza (AI) on the 27th.

                      The AI ​​virus detected at the Hwaseong laying hen farm the day before was confirmed as an H5N6 virus with a high possibility of confirmation due to its high pathogenicity.

                      Gyeonggi Province announced that it received a report of suspicion of AI at a laying hen (chicken producing egg) farm in Cheongbuk-myeon, Pyeongtaek-si around 10 am on the same day, and a simple test resulted in a positive result.

                      The farmer found that about 20 chickens died that day and promptly reported it.

                      The livestock quarantine authorities in Towa City decided to slaughter 145,000 chickens raised at the farm. In addition, it plans to collect samples and request detailed inspections from the provincial animal sanitation laboratory and the quarantine headquarters of the Ministry of Agriculture, Food and Rural Affairs.

                      One laying hen farm and one broiler farm within a 500-meter radius of the farm also included 200,000 birds raised in the target of slaughter.

                      An order to temporarily suspend the movement of poultry, related workers, and vehicles has been issued throughout Gyeonggi Province until 6 p.m. on the same day.

                          Highly pathogenic AI confirmed at 150,000 laying hen farms… first this fall
                          2022.11.06 16:13 input
                          Reporter Ho-Jun Lee

                          The highly pathogenic avian influenza (AI), which skyrocketed egg prices due to a large-scale epidemic in the winter of 2020, is wriggling again. The first highly pathogenic AI was discovered this fall on a laying hen farm, and the frequency of occurrence is increasing.

                          According to the Ministry of Agriculture, Food and Rural Affairs on the 6th, a total of 7 cases of highly pathogenic AI were confirmed in poultry farms this fall. Earlier on the 5th, the Central Accident Response Headquarters for Highly Pathogenic AI announced that it had confirmed H5N1 type highly pathogenic AI at three locations: a broiler farm and a broiler duck farm in Cheongju-si, North Chungcheong Province, and a laying hen farm in Sunchang-gun, Jeollabuk-do. It is the first time this fall that highly pathogenic AI has been confirmed in a laying hen farm.

                          The farm is raising about 154,000 laying hens, and was confirmed after reporting suspicion of AI. The heavy water headquarters confirmed the avian influenza H5 antigen, dispatched an initial response team to the site, and conducted access control, slaughter, and epidemiological investigations on the farm. An order to temporarily suspend movement has been issued to local governments and affiliated companies that have occurred such as Chungbuk, Sejong, Cheonan, Chungcheongnam-do, and the entire poultry farm in Jeollabuk-do.

                          The government is concerned that the virus will spread nationwide, mainly in wild birds, as highly pathogenic AIs are being confirmed one after another in migratory bird observation areas.

                          From October to November 3, a total of 17 wild bird AIs were identified, of which 11 were highly pathogenic and 3 were low pathogenic. The remaining three cases are being tested for high pathogenicity. Areas where highly pathogenic AI has been confirmed are nationwide, including Incheon, Gyeonggi, Chungnam, Chungbuk, Jeonnam, and Gyeongnam.

                          The government, which has established special quarantine measures for livestock infectious diseases this winter and is conducting quarantine work, is very nervous about the appearance of highly pathogenic AI.

                          H5N1 type highly pathogenic AI was a popular AI from the winter of 2020 to the spring of 2021. At that time, 29.93 million eggs including laying hens were slaughtered, causing a nationwide egg riot that cost more than 10,000 won per 30 eggs. In the midst of a difficult shopping cart situation due to the high inflation, the government is in a situation where it is necessary to prevent the reappearance of the 'egg crisis' through large-scale slaughter.

                          Minister of Agriculture, Food and Rural Affairs Jeong Hwang-geun said at a countermeasures meeting held on the 5th, “As highly pathogenic avian influenza antigen was confirmed for the first time this winter at a laying hen farm, especially in areas with large concentrations of laying hens such as Gyeonggi-do and Chungnam, and high pathogenic avian influenza in the past. We request that the 16 cities and counties, including Cheonan and Icheon, be managed more closely.”

                          In addition, "Since it is a critical time with a high probability of outbreak and spread of avian influenza, each local government urges each local government to not carry out formal farm inspections tied to local paternalism, but to work with caution, such as promptly correcting even minor deficiencies." did.

                          The quarantine authorities plan to conduct detailed inspections on poultry farms across the country by the 9th, and check whether the farms susceptible to infection comply with the quarantine rules by the 11th.

Farms where antigens were detected were breeding 43,000 and 10,500 animals, respectively. The farmer reported the increase in the mortality of poultry being raised, and the Gyeonggi and Jeonnam Animal Hygiene Testing Centers conducted tests respectively.

                            As soon as the AI ​​antigen was confirmed, the heavy water headquarters put an initial response team into the field and took preemptive quarantine measures such as controlling access to the farm, killing it, and conducting an epidemiological investigation. In addition, a standstill order was issued to the affected local government and its affiliates.

                            During the temporary suspension period, the heavy water headquarters organizes a central inspection team (8 groups, 16 people) to check whether farms, facilities, and vehicles are following orders. Violation of the temporary suspension order without a moving approval document and disinfection measures is punishable by imprisonment for up to one year or a fine of up to 10 million won in accordance with Article 57 of the 'Livestock Contagious Disease Prevention Act'.

                            Joongsubon urged "poultry breeding farms to immediately report to the quarantine authorities if symptoms of highly pathogenic AI are confirmed, such as increased mortality, decreased egg production, and reduced feed intake in poultry."
