Goose with bird flu at Öland village: "High pathogen"
Confirmed bird flu of the type that causes sudden illness where birds die acutely, sometimes with swollen head and bleeding.
It concerns a wild greylag goose in Egby on the eastern side of Öland that was discovered in mid-November.
Borgholm municipality • 01 December 2021 13:00 • 01 December 2021 15:09

The sampling was carried out on 17 November and now the report comes from SVA (Statens veterinärmedicinska anstalt).

"A greylag goose found in Borgholm municipality is positive for highly pathogenic bird flu H5N1."

In fact, the find was made in the area around Egby, on the eastern side of Öland. It was about a wild greylag goose, female.

Only avian influenza of the H5N1 subtype is notifiable under the Swedish Communicable Diseases Act. An outbreak of highly pathogenic avian influenza is often characterized by a very sudden onset of illness with many birds dying acutely (read the fact box).

The infection control at the County Administrative Board in Kalmar has been notified of the case. Ölandsbladet wrote just over a month ago about the first confirmed case on Öland in just over four years.

Bird flu outbreak leaves Swedish coast littered with carcasses
A record-breaking bird flu outbreak has hit the Swedish west coast, leaving hundreds of wild birds dead. Local authorities are just starting to take action despite the problem existing all summer.
Lasse Sørensen / July 28, 2022

GOTHENBURG, Sweden (CN) — Tourists wandering along Sweden’s west coast this summer may come across more than a fresh ocean breeze and the delicious smell of cooked fish on shore.

Swedes and visitors alike have stumbled upon many dead birds in recent months and see others behaving in unnatural ways. A record-breaking outbreak of bird flu on the west coast is a major threat to wild bird populations.

“It is justified to talk about a disaster,” Anders Wirdheim, chairman of the city of Halmstad’s ornithological association, told local broadcaster SVT, after hundreds of dead northern gannets had been discovered in a short amount of time. Most of them were infected.

“If [the outbreak] continues, and it seems like it will, then the situation is serious,” Wirdheim said, adding “if 7,000 birds disappear in a colony, it is fair to call it a catastrophe. That is the scenario we see right now, with a risk of this becoming a recurring event.”..

Laughing gulls in Kalmar died of bird flu

The page was last reviewed: 2023-06-22

[FONT=lato !important]The dead laughing gulls that were found in Kalmar recently have been found to be infected with highly pathogenic bird flu of the H5N1 type. During April and May, bird flu has caused high mortality in laughing gulls in Stockholm County, and now also gull colonies in Kalmar have been affected. [/FONT]

[FONT=georgia !important]There are several colonies of laughing gulls around Kalmar and upwards of 1,000 birds have died in a colony on the islands outside Kalmar Castle. Dead laughing seagulls have also been noted in other places in Kalmar municipality, but in those cases it has been a smaller number.

[FONT=georgia !important]- In a short time, we have seen extensive mortality in laughing gulls caused by bird flu in different parts of the country. The reason is that there is now a bird flu variant circulating that is particularly well adapted to gulls, in combination with the fact that laughing gulls nest and live closely in colonies. There may be a risk of spread to surrounding areas and it is therefore important to also protect poultry from infection, says Karl Ståhl, state epizootologist at SVA. [/FONT]

[FONT=georgia !important]Infection prevention recommendations[/FONT][/FONT]
  • Poultry producers and hobby chicken owners should review their infection control procedures to prevent the introduction of avian influenza virus from wild birds or their flocks. Feed and water must be given indoors or under cover. In the event of signs of morbidity or increased mortality, it is important to contact a veterinarian.
  • Dogs should not come into contact with sick or dead birds and should be kept on a leash in areas of high morbidity and mortality in wild birds
  • The Norwegian Public Health Authority assesses the risk of infection to humans as very low, but as a general rule you should still avoid contact with sick or dead birds.
  • Those of you who still need to handle dead birds are encouraged to use gloves and wash your hands afterwards.
Report if you see sick or dead birds, mammals are also of interest

[FONT=georgia !important]SVA welcomes continued reporting of sick and dead birds to reportervilt.sva.se , and the statistics that come in are a good measure of the extent and spread of bird flu if the disease is found in an area. SVA is also interested in receiving reports on observed morbidity or mortality in mammals, eg foxes and seals.[/FONT]​
