Re: Newcastle Disease Virus, Avian - Venezuela

Newcastle huh....

I don't think so.

Most likely Venezuela is doing what almost every other country has done.

1) Deny H5N1 in Birds
2) Admit Newcastle in Birds
3) Admit H5 in Birds
4) Admit H5N1 in Birds
5) Admit Suspected H5N1 in Humans
6) Confirm H5N1 in Humans

Venezuela is at Level 2 of 6. They will catch up soon.
