Justru Kalteng Penyebar Virus H5N1 ke Kalsel

Ayam terjangkit virus H5N1 harus diisolasi.
BANJARMASIN, JUMAT - Ada tudingan penyebaran flu burung di Kalimantan Tengah (Kalteng) berasal dari pasokan ayam dari Kalimantan Selatan (Kalsel). Kepala Dinas Peternakan Kalsel, Maskamian Andjam angkat bicara.
Selain menyangkal, Maskamian juga balik menuding Kalteng sebagai penyebar virus H5NI (flu burung) di Banua. "Justru Kalteng yang menyebarkan virus itu ke Kalsel. Karena, ayam positif flu burung yang kali pertama kami temukan berasal dari Kapuas," ucapnya di Banjarmasin, Kamis (7/1/2010).
Ayam itu ditemukan di Pelaihari, Tanahlaut pada 18 Desember 2009. Menyikapi itu, dinas peternakan menugaskan petugas dan dokter hewan yang sudah mendapatkan pelatihan tentang virus flu burung secara Internasional menangani kasus itu.
Dengan peralatan rapid tes (tes seketika) seharga Rp 150 ribu dan pollinary change reaction seharga Rp 800 ribu, petugas langsung melakukan penyisiran ke kandang ayam-kandang ayam. "Berdasar tes dan penyisiran yang dilakukan petugas, ada yang positif dan negatif," katanya.
Ayam yang positif terkena flu burung ditemukan di lima peternakan. Untuk mengantisipasi penyebaran, sebanyak 7 ribu ayam dibakar. "Selang beberapa hari kemudian, di Sungaijelai, Tanahlaut juga ditemukan ayam yang mati mendadak dan positif terkena flu burung," ujar Maskamian.
Dia juga menilai tudingan itu tidak beralasan karena ayam dari Kalsel yang dipasok ke Kateng itu rata-rata memiliki berat 1,7 kilogram per ekor. "Artinya, hanya ayam yang sehat yang mampu memiliki berat seperti itu," tegasnya.
Terakhir, lanjut Maskamian, ditemukan 11 ayam yang positif terserang virus itu di Banjarbaru Utara dan Guntungpayung, Banjarbaru. Ayam tersebut juga langsung dibakar. "Kami juga terus melakukan pengawasan terhadap semua peternakan ayam," ucapnya.
Sedangkan Gubernur Kalsel Rudy Ariffin mengatakan sebaiknya tidak ada sikap saling menyalahkan dalam penanganan kasus flu burung di Kalsel dan Kalteng. "Kita kan tidak tahu, kalau ayam di Kalteng itu juga sudah terkena virus dulu baru dijual ke Kalsel. Karena jarak dan sistem perdagangan yang cepat inilah, sehingga tidak pas kalau hanya menyalahkan," katanya.
Uji Laboratorium
Pernyataan sebaliknya dilontarkan Kabid Kesehatan Hewam Dinas Peternakan Kapuas, Kalteng, Rudjito. Dia menegaskan virus H5NI yang di Kalteng --kali pertama ditemukan di Kapuas-- berasal dari Pelaihari.
"Ini berdasarkan hasil uji laboratorium terhadap sampel ayam mati oleh Balai Penyidikan dan Pengujian Veteriner (BPPV) Banjarbaru. Berdasar keterangan dari pemiliknya, ayam itu didatangkan dari Pelaihari," katanya.
Saat ditanya tempat pemilik peternakan membeli ayam-ayam itu, Rudjito mengatakan belum bisa memastikan. "Nanti kami telusuri, di mana daerahnya," ujarnya sembari mengungkapkan penyebaran virus H5N1 juga merambah di tujuh kecamatan.
Berdasar pantauan BPost, harga ayam di Kapuas masih normal. Seorang pedagang ayam di di kawasan Jembatan Koyang, Jalan Mawar Kualakapuas, H Hamsani mengungkapkan harga daging ayam masih Rp 16 ribu per kilogram.
