    The avian influenza has reached the district of Neuburg-Schrobenhausen
    Mon, 03.01.2022 12:22 p.m.

    The pathogen of the subtype H5N1 was detected in a dead swan. Further expansion is assumed. Strengthened biosecurity measures are already in place.

    (ty) Avian influenza has been detected in a dead wild bird in the Neuburg-Schrobenhausen district. As the district office announced today, a dead swan was recovered from the Bittenbrunn reservoir on December 23 with the support of the Technical Relief Agency (THW). The investigation initiated by the veterinary office showed a positive result for the avian influenza virus. It goes on to say: "The national reference laboratory has now confirmed the subtype H5N1, which since mid-October 2021 has increasingly led to outbreaks in wild birds such as wild geese, wild ducks, gulls and birds of prey, but also in poultry populations."

    Based on the number of cases, according to the district office, it can be assumed that the virus can be found across Germany in wild waterfowl and has now also reached the Neuburg-Schrobenhausen district. "A further spread of the infection in the Bavarian wild bird population is assumed," said the authority. And: "The Friedrich-Loeffler-Institut (FLI) as well as the Bavarian State Office for Health and Food Safety (LGL) see in their risk assessments in particular the areas around and on waters where wild waterfowl can be found as particularly endangered on."

    As reported at the time, the district office of Neuburg-Schrobenhausen had already ordered increased biosecurity measures to protect against entry into poultry stocks with a general order dated December 8th last year. "This regulates, among other things, the ban on feeding wild birds (songbirds are excluded), the ban on poultry shows, test obligations and regulations on access to enclosures," summarizes the authority once again. The authorities urgently ask poultry farmers to comply with the measures and to prevent their poultry from coming into direct or indirect contact with wild birds. Here is the direct link to the general availability...

    01.12.2021 | 02:35 | Avian influenza
    Avian influenza spreads in the Westerwald
    Koblenz - The Rhineland-Palatinate State Investigation Office (LUA) has detected the H5N1 virus in a total of 25 wild birds from the Westerwald.

    The LUA announced on Tuesday that swans were primarily affected by the avian influenza, but also Canada geese, great egrets, gray herons and mallards. Domestic fowl is not sick.

    A stable had been ordered in the Westerwaldkreis. It is important to prevent direct and indirect contact between domestic fowl and wild birds. Buying in live poultry should continue to be avoided, according to the LUA.

    Avian influenza was detected in Rhineland-Palatinate for the first time in mid-November this season. A transmission of this virus, which is dangerous for poultry, to humans is not yet known in Germany. But it is theoretically possible and has already been established in other countries....

    Donaueschingen
    Avian influenza probably more widespread in Donaueschingen
    Experts have now also detected the highly contagious avian influenza virus H5N1 in a wild goose in Donaueschingen (Schwarzwald-Baar district).
    11/25/2021

    Donaueschingen. According to the district office on Thursday, the animal was found several kilometers from the place where four swans infected with avian influenza were recently discovered. "Therefore it can be assumed that the virus is present in a larger area."

    Avian influenza, also known as avian influenza, is a highly contagious infectious disease that occurs primarily in water birds. According to experts, the disease is harmless to humans. According to the Friedrich Loeffler Institute, infected birds have also been found in Rhineland-Palatinate, Bavaria, Lower Saxony, North Rhine-Westphalia and Hamburg since mid-October.

    The authorities in the region around Donaueschingen had defined areas in which keepers have to leave their poultry in the barn. This is to prevent infection. The district office announced that this zone will not change with the new proof of the goose.

    Avian influenza in the Aurich district
    Aike Sebastian Ruhr
    A black-headed gull, similar to the one in the photo, tested positive for the avian influenza virus.

    The avian influenza virus was found in a black-headed gull that was found in the Aurich district. Now the Agriculture Minister is warning.

    District of Aurich The "highly contagious avian influenza virus of subtype H5N1 was found in a black-headed gull that was found in the district of Aurich", as the Lower Saxony Ministry of Food, Agriculture and Consumer Protection announced in a press release. "The findings are a reason for an extremely high level of vigilance in the country," said Agriculture Minister Barbara Otte-Kinast as quoted in the communication. According to the announcement, she called on poultry farmers in Lower Saxony to protect their animals and consistently implement the biosecurity measures on their farms. In the past few days, HPAI-infected wild birds have also been found in Schleswig-Holstein.

    From November 2020 to May 2021, the outbreak of avian influenza (HPAI) was detected in over 70 poultry holdings in Lower Saxony. The HPAI's last detection of a wild bird in Lower Saxony took place on July 27th. According to the current risk assessment by the Friedrich Loeffler Institute (FLI), migrating waterfowl from Scandinavia and the Baltic States could continue to promote the spread of the avian influenza virus.
