The culling of the flock took place on Tuesday. Some 4,200 ducks from a farm in Saint-P?re-en-Retz, Loire-Atlantique, were euthanized after the detection of an avian influenza H5 virus in the farm, reports the prefecture. Preventive measures have been taken to prevent the spread of the virus, "low pathogenic". The disinfection operations of the breeding are in progress.
Without threat to humans
"This outbreak is unrelated to epizootics caused by highly pathogenic viruses H5N1 and H5N8, which occurred in 2016 and 2017 in the south-west of France and in other European countries, insists the prefecture. The identification of this low pathogenic virus, without threat to humans, is not exceptional and its circulation is known. "
A surveillance zone was nevertheless set up within a 1km perimeter around the farm.
