Ardèche: an outbreak of bird flu in Saint-Montan, ducks slaughtered

About fifty ducks belonging to an individual in Saint-Montan (Ardèche) were slaughtered on Wednesday. Analyzes confirmed that they were carriers of avian flu. Poultry must be confined within a radius of 5 kilometers.

The department of Ardèche is no longer spared by bird flu. Analyzes have confirmed cases of the disease in a lady passionate about ornamental ducks in Saint-Montan near Bourg-Saint-Andéol in Ardèche. The 54 ducks were slaughtered on Wednesday. The contamination would be linked to a duck she had just bought and which was infected. And it's "reassuring" for the prefect of Ardèche, Thierry Devimeux. Nothing to do with migrating birds which can also carry the disease, making the spread more difficult to contain.

For this household, there will be no other slaughterings. The prefectural decree issued in connection with the Ministry of Agriculture only imposes the confinement of poultry within a radius of five kilometers.

A first in Drôme-Ardèche

Avian flu is not dangerous for humans but it is very contagious for poultry. The outbreaks of the disease were currently located in western France according to the latest report from the Ministry of Agriculture. There had never been an outbreak detected in Drôme-Ardèche.
