Indonesia to ban backyard poultry to fight bird flu
01.15.07, 7:33 AM ET

JAKARTA (XFN-ASIA) - Indonesia is preparing to ban backyard poultry farming in a renewed effort to fight bird flu, officials said, after the feared disease killed four people last week.

The fatalities raised Indonesia's death toll from the virus to 61, the highest in the world. The vast majority of bird flu cases have occurred after contact with infected poultry.

'This is already ... a situation of health emergency, and we hope that the protection of humans will be much better if birds and humans are separated,' said Aburizal Bakrie, the coordinating minister for people's welfare.

He spoke after a meeting between ministers and the heads of the Jakarta, West Java and Banten regions, which have been worst-hit by the H5N1 virus.

Indonesia's efforts to curb the spread of bird flu have been hampered by the reluctance of some poultry owners, especially backyard farmers, to hand over their sick or potentially infected birds for slaughter.

Health Minister Siti Fadillah Supari said most of Indonesia's victims had had contact with poultry around the house rather than birds from commercial farms.

'In principle, there should be no birds in residential areas,' the minister said, adding that regulations banning backyard poultry will be introduced in the three worst-hit regions.

World Health Organization representative Georg Petersen welcomed the move.

'It is important to reduce contact between birds and people and restrict the raising of chicken in highly-populated areas,' he told Agence France-Presse.

'It has always been our advice to the government to separate birds and humans and in principle this is a very good move,' he said.

Bakrie said the economic impact of the move is being calculated by the affected regions. Jakarta and the provinces of West Java and Banten account for the bulk of bird flu cases.

Bayu Krisnamurthi, the head of the national committee for the control of avian influenza, said the regulations will have to be introduced and implemented by regional governments, which have authority over local farming and fishing.

H5N1 has killed around 160 people worldwide since late 2003 and triggered the mass slaughter of tens of millions of poultry.

Oakland, NJ is the home of Mikron.....aren't the involved in research for someting related to BF? - my searches haven't found anything yet.

Found something... they make thermal cameras to detect possible BF cases.!!!

See http://news.thomasnet.com/fullstory/472758

Release date: January 1, 2006


New Infrared Camera Diagnoses Hidden Building Costs: Energy Losses, Air Infiltration, Moisture Intrusion, Pest Infestation, Mold, Fungus



Simultaneous high-resolution infrared and visual imaging, combined with R-value calculation software, allow detailed reporting and analysis.

January 2006 - Mikron's new 7815B infrared camera is like an x-ray machine for building diagnostics, identifying a wide range of invisible problems that add hidden costs to building ownership. The 7815B combines the highest-resolution microbolometer camera in the industry with a visible light camera and laser target dot to make professional thermal imaging point-and-shoot simple. It can detect air infiltration, moisture intrusion, mold, fungus, energy losses, pest infestations, and other problems. Mikron's ThermalSpection software for R-value calculation, available as an option, makes it easy to produce clear professional reports, even calculating heat losses and current R-values of walls, doors, etc.

The value-engineered M7815B is a price-point first with a high-performance 320x240 detector that offers four times the resolution of standard 160x120 cameras, while still comparably priced at just $16,500. The superior detector resolves an area smaller than a tenth of a square inch at six feet, resulting in precision temperature measurement, along with thermal images that are free of pixelating. The combination of high-resolution IR detector, laser pointer and visual camera capability - never before available in this price range - enable precise problem identification to guide workers. The visual camera provides a 752x480 pixel image. Both IR and visual cameras offer focusing range of 12" to infinity.

The advanced IR detector measures passive radiation emitted by the target and converts the temperature readings into a two-dimensional image showing the temperature distribution at the target surface. Thermal images can be viewed in grayscale or full color, with several color palettes available to allow best definition and interpretation.

Optimized for a working range of -40°C to 120°C, the 7815B is accurate to ±2°C (±2%). On-board diagnostic software provides an intuitive menu system easily accessed by pushbutton control panel located on the back of the camera. The camera can store up to 1300 14-bit images to internal flash memory. A USB 2.0 port allows images and image data to be transferred to external devices. The articulating 3.5" LCD display gives the operator an optimum viewing angle no matter how the camera is aimed, and folds down to cover the control panel when not in use.

With an ergonomic pistol-shaped housing and weight of just 2.9 lbs, the M7815B is designed for easy one-hand operation, but can also be tripod mounted. The durable housing is dust-proof and weather-resistant, and the camera is highly shock and vibration resistant.

The 7815B ships with two Li-ion batteries, each good for approximately 2.5 hours use when fully charged. Accessories include smart battery charger, AC adapter and DC interface cable, USB cable, carrying case and downloader software.

For more information on the M7815B Building Inspection camera, contact Jon Chynoweth at 888-506-3900 or email jon@[B]mikron[/B]infrared.com.
