Velocity spread of the bird flu virus that attacked ducks in East Java beyond expectations. Now the 13 districts (counties / cities) in the province of East Java (East Java) in the positive status 'cold duck'.
Not only that alert the public health sector, duck farmers began to scream because Itiknya market declined. Unfortunately, in this case the Provincial Livestock Office Java assessed slowly overcome.
"Should outbreaks of bird flu virus in ducks used as early warning, including the threatened food security. The origin of this virus was not from East Java and Indonesia, but abroad, "Bird Flu Research kataKepala Universitas Airlangga (Airlangga University), Chairul A. Nidom, Friday (28/12).
According to records, in East Java alone, the number of duck population reached 3.18 million head. Total deaths ducks tested positive for AI clade 2.3 sub-clade 2.3.2 (type of bird flu virus in ducks, Red) estimated that more than 10,380 individuals.
This case occurred in Blitar, Tulungagung, Kediri, Probolinggo, Lamongan, and Psychology. Also detected in the Jombang, Malang, Ngawi, Sidoarjo, Nganjuk, Pasuruan and Mojokerto.
Learning from the experience of the bird flu virus in 2003, she called on all parties to participate in thinking about this problem. Because there are concerns can be directly 'jump' to humans. "Now all that needs to be kept in mind is whether this new virus could jump to humans or to animals other birds," he said.
Separately, Head of the Animal Husbandry Department of East Java, Maskur said it had done with the bio-security epidemic, such as isolating poultry (fence enclosure, ducks sick, and new home), watched the traffic for vehicles transporting workers and ducks, as well as cleaning and disinfection to the equipment enclosure.
"Supervision ducks trading system is also done with a tight, well that traffic between regions or provinces.

Council members urged the handling of Java do more serious. Because the spread of the virus very quickly and patterned massively. "I think in addition to handling should be done as soon as possible of the health aspect also requires close coordination with the intelligence elements," said commission member E East Java parliament Rosyadi Riyadh.
He was worried, the bird flu virus outbreak adalah'serangan 'planned to foreigners to undermine the local livestock industry. On one hand, the flu virus that will facilitate the entry of duck duck imports to Indonesia or East Java. In addition, later if the virus was spread in East Java, Indonesia or the interest to obtain signatures vaccine. "Usually after symptoms symptoms appear it will enter the foreign studies which will end with a quote vaccines that have been prepared by them," he stated.
Ducks Java Denied
Previously stated Kediri DVO product sales Ducks to a standstill outside the region. In fact, until now the promised disaster relief funds the provincial government also reportedly unclear.
Sub Head of Animal Health Animal Husbandry and Fisheries Kediri, Apriati Dwiwin, said nearly every day he had received complaints from ranchers who suffered extraordinary losses. They no longer duck products sold outside of the region. "All the ducks from East Java no longer for sale behavior," said Dwiwin.
Dwiwin said the fate of the duck farmers in this region have fallen like a stricken household. In the midst of their efforts to tackle bird flu outbreak in self due to limited government funding, the business is now threatened with bankruptcy. The entire shipment duck out of the area stopped completely due to bird flu coverage is so intense.
The farmers, according Dwiwin, has struggled mightily to save his business. Amid the thousands of deaths that plagued the tail pet, they must be willing to spend to buy disinfectants and drugs to fight bird flu virus. Purchase this independently forced to do due to the unavailability of free disinfectant of government.
East Java Governor Soekarwo promise to allocate disaster funds as a consequence of the application of exceptional status hitherto obscure tip base. As a result of bird flu outbreak response was left entirely to the farmers. Department of Animal Husbandry only be providing information about the standard of bird flu, such as sterilization of cages and workers spraying disinfectant, to the burning carcasses of infected birds.
Appeal the government to destroy the infected ducks did not do in the absence of compensation / compensation to farmers for the destruction of it as in the case of bird flu chicken some time ago. As a result, farmers could only isolate and segregate the sick ducks even though it was far from effective.
This condition is justified Tamaji, one duck farmers in the village of moor, District Kandat, Kediri which are endemic areas of bird flu. He stated his business devastated by the rejection of ducks from Kediri. "We can only sell to local residents," he said.

Disnak, he said, only an appeal and coordination, without any help of vaccines to farmers. As a result, these duck deaths are still happening.
"We ask Disnak quickly take concrete steps and distribute vaccines to all poultry, especially ducks," said Mujiono. Duck deaths that continue to occur, the duck population has reduced to 30 percent in East Java. It is, of course, is very detrimental Breeders. M18, sty
