    Bird flu detected in Portugal
    By
    Natasha Donn -
    2nd December 2021

    A case of bird flu has been detected in a domestic chicken coop in Palmela.

    Authorities have ‘actioned methods of control’ (meaning the other birds in the coop will have been destroyed, and domestic animals in surrounding areas checked).

    Reports stress there is no evidence that this flu can be transmitted to humans through consumption of eggs or meat.

    There are also no large-scale industrial establishments producing poultry in the area.

    A statement by the DGAV (general directorate of foodstuff and veterinary medicine) explains the strain of H5N1 virus identified is “highly pathogenic” and will have arrived in Portugal as a result of regular migration of wild birds from Asia and/ or Russia...

      SOURCE OF EVENT OR ORIGIN OF INFECTION
      - Unknown or inconclusive


      EPIDEMIOLOGICAL COMMENTS
      It is a backyard holding with multiple bird species. The probable source is the contact with wild birds, because no other epidemiological links were found. The holdings in the protection and surveillance zone were visited and there was no clinical signs and/or mortality. All those holdings are backyard (non-poultry).

                          Portugal registers new case of bird flu in Constância
                          New outbreak was detected in the district of Santarém
                          JN / Agencies
                          Yesterday at 20:09

                          The Directorate-General for Food and Veterinary Medicine (DGAV) confirmed this Friday a focus of infection with avian influenza virus in a facility that holds collection birds in Constância, in the district of Santarém.

                          In a statement, DGAV said that the case was detected in domestic animals in the parish of Santa Margarida da Coutada, which is part of the surveillance zone of the primary focus detected in December in Vila Nova da Barquinha, a municipality adjacent to Constância.

                          The Directorate-General for Food and Veterinary also indicated that "the outbreak control measures are already being implemented in accordance with the legislation in force"...

                              A third outbreak of bird flu – this time in a commercial exploration of ducks – has been flagged in the A dos Cunhados e Macieria parish of Torres Vedras (near Lisbon). As with the other two outbreaks this month among chicken farms, measures of control involve culling all the infected birds (no indication has been given at to numbers involved), checking on methods of hygiene at the premises, and informing other bird-rearing businesses in the area. Compensation is available for the loss of infected birds – 75% co-financed by the European Community.
