Two more cases of H5N1 bird flu in the Sharon region: The first case was detected in a fattening turkey coop in Moshav Kfar Vitkin, where there are approximately 12,800 12-week-old turkeys in six buildings. In the second case, the disease was detected in a training coop for breeding turkeys in Kibbutz Ma'in Zvi, where there are approximately 7,600 15.4-week-old turkeys in two buildings. As a reminder, two more cases were diagnosed in the same localities last week.
In order to prevent the spread of the disease, the Ministry of Agriculture and Food Security is acting in accordance with the procedures recommended by the World Organization for Animal Health (WOAH) regarding the treatment of avian influenza.

The first event was in Moshav Nahalal, followed by additional foci in Moshav Ram-On in the Ta'anach region, in another coop in Nahalal, in Kibbutz Alonim, and in Kibbutz Tzora between the months September-October. As mentioned, the last two hotspots that were also diagnosed were in Kibbutz Ma'an Zvi and Moshav Kfar Vitkin.
