(MZ photo: Heinz Noack) Sangerhausen/dpa. At artificial lake the Kelbra in the area by Saxonia-Anhalt for well three weeks no new cases of the dangerous bird flu were proven with dead game birds. The last dead bird, which was positively tested on bird flu (H5), was found on 23 July. The observation and restricted area remains nevertheless existing further to the caution, as the district communicated one field south resin on Wednesday. Since the outbreak of the poultry plague with game birds at the beginning of of July in the district according to with 212 black neck divers, seven hood divers, two sea gulls were proven to the data as well as with in each case a Blessralle and a board duck as well as with a dwarf diver the dangerous bird flu virus H5N1. To it more than 300 game birds died to artificial lake, which extends to Thuringia, according to data of the authorities. In the Free State 440 dead birds were examined and of it 106 positively tested, said a speaker of the Ministry of Health in Erfurt. The last case is only become known on past Friday in Thuringia. Meanwhile the district one field south resin requested the poultry owners in the areas concerned to absolutely keep preventive measures. So there may be for example no contact with game water birds, animals may not in the free one be fed. In Saxonia-Anhalt at the beginning of of July had been proven the dangerous variant of the bird flu (H5N1) with the investigation of at artificial lake Kelbra the found dead hood diver and black neck diver, in Thuerigen the virus some days before with animals of artificial lake was for the first time determined.

The above translation appears to have raised the total number of confirmed summer of 2007 cases to 330 assuming "Free State" includes Saxony, Thuringia, and Bavaria.

In 2006, Germany's 342 confirmed H5N1 wild bird cases was the highest in Europe.

Since the outbreak of the poultry plague with game birds at the beginning of July in the district according to with 212 black neck divers, seven hood divers, two sea gulls were proven to the data as well as with in each case a Blessralle and a board duck as well as with a dwarf diver the dangerous bird flu virus H5N1.

To it more than 300 game birds died to artificial lake, which extends to Thuringia, according to data of the authorities.

In the Free State 440 dead birds were examined and of it 106 positively tested, said a speaker of the Ministry of Health in Erfurt. The last case is only become known on past Friday in Thuringia.

The above translation indicates that the number of confirmed H5N1 infected wild birds in Germany has grown to 330 and involve at least seven species. The most recent positive was Friday, August 10 in Thuringia, suggesting that the summer outbreak may exceed the record number of confirmed birds in Germany in 2006, which totaled 343. In 2006 over 700 birds in Europe were confirmed to be H5N1 infected, but Germany had the largest number of cases.

In 2006 there was only one reported outbreak of H5N1 in domestic poultry (turkeys) in Germany (in Saxony) and this year there was on one goose that was infected (in Thuringia).

These data provide more evidence for an endemic population of H5N1 infected wild birds in Germany as well as neighboring countries. France has now had three reports of confirmed H5N1 in wild birds (ducks and swans) this summer, and the Czech Republic has reported one infected swan. These lower numbers and the failure to detect H5N1 by neighboring countries is cause for concern.

Although long range migration of wild birds is minimal during the summer in central Europe, H5N1 has been found in resident birds and there is little reason to expect infections to be localized in Germany.

Re: 250 Dead birds were found (Kelbra Lake, Germany)

The above story suggests that the 330 confirmed dead birds were all at Kelbra Lake, which would mean that the summer tally in Germany has set a record. In 2006 Germany had 343 confirmed cases, while this year in addition to the cases at the Lake there have been more confirmed wild birds in Nuremburg and Munich in Bavaria, multiple additional locations in Thuiringia, and multiple additional locations in Saxony.
