Bird flu in Kamperveen


News | 21-11-2014

In Kamperveen (Overijssel) in a poultry farm with a total of around 10,000 animals bird flu (avian influenza, AI) has been detected. The chickens are to be culled as soon as possible. This is based on European rules. The depopulation is by the Dutch Food and Consumer Authority (NVWA).

It is an infection to an H5 strain of bird flu. It is not yet clear whether it is a low pathogenic or a highly pathogenic variant. Further analysis by the CVI must determine this. It is expected that the results of this analysis are available today. This writes Dijksma Minister of Economic Affairs in a letter to the Lower House.

A 10 km zone established around the company Kamperveen. Within this area are 34 other poultry farms. These companies are sampled and tested for bird flu.

Note: reportedly many chickens died, this could indicate a HP strain.

In the area with a radius of 1 km around the infected holding in Kamperveen the NVWA found at clinical signs found matching bird flu in a farm. The type of bird flu has not yet been known.

Ook een derde bedrijf, dat op één kilometer afstand ligt, wordt geruimd. A third company,
which is one kilometer away, is cleared. De NOS meldt dat dit uit voorzorg gebeurt.
The NOS reports that this happens as a precaution.

34 companies in the 10km-area

The avian influenza is not due to wild birds, says animal welfare organization
Compassion in World Farming (CIWF).

the companies affected in the Netherlands have no exit to the outside.
The animals are always in.
