In a poultry yard in Bavaria several cases of bird flu were discovered

it concerns an enterprise in Wachenroth

The Second Channel of German Television reported in the evening, there about 44,000 young ducks were accommodated. Samples from ver­ende­ten animals were sent to Friedrich Loeffler Friedrich-Loeffler-Institut on the island Riems. A test result is to be present at the beginning of coming week.

The above translation describes suspected H5N1 in domestic ducks in Wachenroth in Bavaria. The location is northwest of Nuremberg, where over a dozen swans were H5N1 confirmed in the past two months. This summer over 350 wild birds were H5N1 confirmed, eclipsing the record number confirmed in Germany in 2006.

These infections, when long range migration in Germany is minimal, provide additional evidence for endemic H5N1 in Germany. The recent detections in France and the Czech Republic supports endemic H5N1 throughout Europe.

These repeated conformations raise serious questions about the surveillance programs in neighboring countries which have not detected H5N1 since the spring of 2006.

The origin of the current outbreak will be easily determined. The isolates from Bavaria in 2006 fell into two distinct groups. The H5N1 in 2007 is different (more like isolates from Tyva/Afghanistan). Therefore the sequences of H5N1 will be compared two to very large databases (there have been over 350 positievs this year in Bavaria, Saxony, Saxony-Anhalt, and Thuringia)..
