ParisSeveral outbreaks of severe bird flu in Europe and Asia have been reported in recent days to the World Organisation for Animal Health (OIE), in a sign the virus is spreading quickly again.

The spread of highly pathogenic avian influenza, commonly called bird flu, has put the poultry industry on alert after previous outbreaks led to the culling of tens of millions of birds. Outbreaks also often lead to trade restrictions.
It is attracting the attention too of epidemiologists as the virus can be transmitted to humans. China has reported 21 human infections with the H5N6 subtype of avian influenza so far this year, more than in the whole of 2020.

Bird flu cannot be transmitted through the eating of poultry products.

This last point about eating poultry appears to be inaccurate and also avoids the problem of handling raw poultry and eggs.

Another part of Lancashire has been placed in a disease control zone after an outbreak of bird flu.

The H5N1 strain of avian influenza was found in birds at a premises near Kirkham yesterday (November 16).

Public health authorities have set up 3km and 10km temporary control zones around the infection site.

The Department for Environment, Food and Rural Affairs (DEFRA) has said that all birds on the premises will be 'humanely culled'.
