    Avian flu continues in Volusia County
    by: Pat Kuehn, CPRC
    Community Information Specialist, Volusia County Government

    Avian flu, a highly contagious viral infection that occurs naturally in birds, continues to be detected in Volusia County. Technically known as highly pathogenic avian influenza, the disease was documented in Volusia County in February when three sick water birds were brought to the Marine Science Center and park rangers at Hontoon Island State Park noticed that black vultures were dying at higher-than-normal rates.

    Since then the Florida Fish and Wildlife Conservation Commission has confirmed the virus in 25 counties. FWC officials have been coordinating closely with other state and federal agencies to monitor, investigate and document ongoing cases...

    Avian Flu Detected in Florida—Fourth U.S. State in Current Outbreak
    H5N1, a highly pathogenic avian flu, keeps popping up in wild waterfowl in the southeastern U.S.
    By Sage Marshall | Published Feb 4, 2022 12:00 PM

    A highly pathogenic strain of avian flu has been detected in Florida. On January 22, samples collected by USDA-Wildlife Services employees from two hunter-killed bluewing teal tested positive for Eurasian H5 avian influenza (HPAI). A highly pathogenic avian influenza hadn’t been found in wild birds in the United States since 2016—but since this fall, it’s been detected in four states: North Carolina, South Carolina, Virginia, and now, Florida. The strain, dubbed H5N1, that was found in Florida was first detected in Europe in early 2021. The rare outbreak roughly follows major outbreaks in Europe and the Middle East, particularly Israel, where officials called a recent outbreak “the worst blow to wildlife in the country’s history.”...

      Avian Influenza


      Key Facts
      • January 2022: Samples collected by USDA-Wildlife Services from hunter-harvested blue-winged teal in Palm Beach County have tested positive for Highly Pathogenic Avian Influenza (HPAI) strain: H5N1 2.3.4.4b Eurasian.
      • This follows similar reports of the H5N1 Eurasian strain from South Carolina, North Carolina, Virginia, and Canada (Newfoundland and Labrador) this past fall and winter (2021-2022).
      • This strain has been documented in Europe since early 2021.
      • No known human infections with Eurasian H5 viruses have occurred in the United States.
      • FWC is monitoring for HPAI in birds found sick or dead of unknown causes.
      Ways to help prevent HPAI spread
      • Report bird mortalities so die-offs can be investigated and tested.
      • Prevent contact of domestic or captive birds with wild birds (especially waterfowl).
      • Do not handle sick/dead wildlife. If it is necessary to do so then wear impermeable gloves, wash hands with soap and water, and change clothing before having any contact with healthy domestic poultry and birds.
      • Hunters and others handling birds should follow routine precautions listed below when handling wild birds.

      About Avian Influenza


      Wild birds can carry a number of strains of the avian influenza viruses, most of which do not cause disease. However, transmission of low pathogenic strains (causes minimal signs of disease in domestic poultry) to poultry can result in changes in the virus and the formation of more highly pathogenic strains (can cause significant disease in domestic poultry).

      The Florida Fish and Wildlife Conservation Commission (FWC) is investigating mortality events involving wild bird populations by monitoring and investigating reports of wild bird die-offs. FWC is working in cooperation with the United States Department of Agriculture-Wildlife Services, Florida Department of Agriculture and Consumer Services, University of Florida, National Wildlife Health Center, Southeastern Cooperative Wildlife Disease Study, Florida Department of Health, and wildlife rehabilitators on this initiative.

      Recommended Precautions


      We ask the public not to handle sick or dead birds, however, we strongly encourage the reporting of all sightings of dead birds to the bird mortality database. Wild birds involved in die-offs will be collected, examined, and tested for Avian Influenza, West Nile Virus, Exotic Newcastle's Disease, and/or other infectious agents of concern.

      The HPAI virus is not easily transmissible from birds to people but health officials are concerned it could develop into another form that spreads readily from person to person, triggering a global disease outbreak known as a pandemic. While it is extremely unlikely that hunters or people feeding birds could contract the HPAI virus from wild birds in Florida, the following common-sense precautions are always recommended to reduce the risk of contracting any disease from wildlife:
      • Do not harvest or handle wild birds that are obviously sick or found dead.
      • Wear rubber gloves while cleaning game or cleaning bird feeders.
      • Do not eat, drink or smoke while cleaning game.
      • Wash hands with soap and water or alcohol wipes immediately after handling game or cleaning bird feeders.
      • Wash tools and work surfaces used to clean game birds with soap and water, then disinfect with a 10% bleach solution.
      • Separate raw meat, and anything it touches, from cooked or ready-to-eat foods to avoid contamination.
      • Cook game birds and poultry thoroughly. Meat should reach an internal temperature of 165 degrees Fahrenheit to kill disease organisms and parasites.

      For more detailed guidelines concerning the handling of wild birds, please see the USDA Guidance for Hunters.

      We also advise that direct or indirect contact between domestic poultry and wild birds, especially waterfowl, be prevented.

        Avian influenza confirmed in wild birds in Florida

        Florida Fish & Wildlife Conservation Commission sent this bulletin at 02/22/2022 02:41 PM ESTFor immediate release: Feb. 22, 2022
        Contacts: Kelly Richmond, Kelly.Richmond@MyFWC.com
        Carly Jones, Carlisle.Jones@MyFWC.com
        ...

        The Florida Fish and Wildlife Conservation Commission (FWC) has been notified by the National Veterinary Services Laboratory of confirmed cases of Highly Pathogenic Avian Influenza (HPAI) strain: H5 2.3.4.4 in a lesser scaup, black vultures and other avian species. There is a low risk of HPAI transmission to humans and, to date, there have been no known human infections in North America.

        The FWC is currently investigating bird mortalities in Brevard, Indian River and Volusia counties believed to be caused by HPAI. This strain has been documented in the United States since 2021 and was detected in hunter-harvested blue-winged teal in Palm Beach County in January 2022.

        To prevent the spread of HPAI, the public should avoid handling sick or dead wildlife, prohibit the contact of domestic birds with wild birds, and report wild bird mortalities to FWC so deaths can be investigated.

        Please be advised that because HPAI is not treatable and is easily transmitted in wild birds, some wildlife rehabbers may not be accepting these animals at this time.


        The FWC is working closely with the United States Department of Agriculture-Wildlife Services, Florida Department of Agriculture and Consumer Services, University of Florida, National Wildlife Health Center, Southeastern Cooperative Wildlife Disease Study, Florida Department of Health, and wildlife rehabilitators to investigate mortality events involving wild birds.

          Bird flu reported in wild waterfowl in 2 Central Florida counties
          March 01, 2022 at 11:09 am EST
          By Katlyn Brieskorn, WFTV.com

          BREVARD COUNTY, Fla. — Confirmed cases of bird flu were reported in wild waterfowl in two Central Florida counties.

          The virus, also known as highly pathogenic avian influenza, was found in wild ducks, geese and swans in Volusia and Brevard counties, according to officials. Cases were also found in Sarasota, Charlotte and Palm Beach counties.

          Officials said the remainder of the state is under surveillance...

            2022 Detections of Highly Pathogenic Avian Influenza in Wild Birds

            Last Modified: Feb 25, 2022



            2022 detections of HPAI in Commercial and Backyard Flocks.

            Wild birds can be infected with HPAI and show no signs of illness. They can carry the disease to new areas when migrating, potentially exposing domestic poultry to the virus. APHIS anticipates additional avian influenza detections will occur in additional states as wild bird surveillance continues into the spring. APHIS’ wild bird surveillance program provides an early warning system for the introduction and distribution of avian influenza viruses of concern in the United States, allowing APHIS and the poultry industry to take timely and rapid action to reduce the risk of spread to our poultry industry and other populations of concern.

                2022 Detections of Highly Pathogenic Avian Influenza in Wild Birds

                Last Modified: Mar 15, 2022
                Print


                Learn about 2022 detections of HPAI in Commercial and Backyard Flocks.

                Wild birds can be infected with HPAI and show no signs of illness. They can carry the disease to new areas when migrating, potentially exposing domestic poultry to the virus. APHIS anticipates additional avian influenza detections will occur in additional states as wild bird surveillance continues into the spring. APHIS’ wild bird surveillance program provides an early warning system for the introduction and distribution of avian influenza viruses of concern in the United States, allowing APHIS and the poultry industry to take timely and rapid action to reduce the risk of spread to our poultry industry and other populations of concern.

                  PALM CITY, Fla. —

                  Wildlife experts in Florida have confirmed that avian influenza is present in Martin County.

                  Savannah Steckler, a wildlife rehabilitator at the Treasure Coast Wildlife Center in Palm City, said a dead duck that was dropped off at the facility earlier this month had the virus.

                  "We actually did have, I think, two or three positive cases coming back from ducks around the Martin County area," Steckler said...

                      Latest News
                      • Press Release: Avian influenza confirmed in wild birds in Florida
                      • April 2022: Black vultures are currently the species most commonly diagnosed with HPAI in Florida. HPAI has also been documented in Muscovy ducks in multiple locations in Florida.
                      • February 2022: HPAI H5N1 has been confirmed in Palm Beach, Brevard, and Volusia counties. Species clinically affected so far include lesser scaup, royal tern, black vulture, and bald eagle. Tests are pending for pelicans, herring gulls, crows, and screech owls. There are also northern gannet deaths reported but these may be natural mortalities during migration.
                      • January 2022: Samples collected by USDA-Wildlife Services from hunter-harvested blue-winged teal in Palm Beach County have tested positive for Highly Pathogenic Avian Influenza (HPAI) strain: H5N1 2.3.4.4b Eurasian.
                      • This follows similar reports of the H5N1 Eurasian strain from South Carolina, North Carolina, Virginia, and Canada (Newfoundland and Labrador) this past fall and winter (2021-2022).
