ALLEGED CASE OF AVIAN FLU
"Senasa has to recognize the error and guarantee that it does not happen again"
The Secretary General of the Government Vignolo spoke with Radio Sudamericana about the situation of Avícola Santa Ana, after the second negative from Senasa, which confirmed that the birds do not have Avian Flu. "Senasa has to recognize the error and guarantee that it does not happen again," he said, acknowledging that the company had to face significant financial losses.
The analysis carried out by the National Laboratory of the National Agrifood Health and Quality Service (Senasa) on the third sample taken from birds from the commercial farm "Avícola Santa Ana", yielded a negative result. The Secretary General of the Government Vignolo spoke with Radio Sudamericana on this issue. "Fortunately the disease is not in our birds and a company that could have gone bankrupt did not have to go through this sanitary rifle," he began by saying.
“Clearly there was a problem, there was no guaranteed traceability in taking that sample. Obviously, the most logical thing to do was to have a second test done and unfortunately they had to go to court”. Ç
"Senasa's response seems unlikely to me," he said and also spoke of the rumor that arose assuring that it was the poultry farm itself that contaminated the first sample that tested positive. “I heard that they said that the company itself contaminated the tests, it doesn't make sense, I don't think it wants to create its own problem. A lot of things could have happened but it cannot be assumed that it was the company itself that caused the damage. The most sensible thing is to admit the error. I believe that Senasa must assume the errors and ensure that these errors are not repeated and surely they will have to respond because the economic damage that the company suffered was important, ”he said.
It should be remembered that the firm threw away some 360,000 eggs this Saturday due to the ban on mobilizing production and the lack of a place to store them.
In addition, the company could not market its other products during these 14 days since Senasa considered that "it was in a contagion zone."
“It seems to me that a mistake was made here, unfortunately, Corrientes gave rise to a counter-proof because there was time and there were no nearby farms. I think that when Senasa was questioned by the company, it should have made a new swab immediately and today the losses would be much less," said Vignolo.
Regarding possible assistance from the provincial government, he said that they are maintaining contact with them. "Surely it will try to help from the corresponding area, which is from the Ministry of Production."
