[TD]One layer farm in Pingtung County, one layer farm and one duck farm in Yunlin County were sampled by the local Livestock Disease Control Centre (LDCC) in the process of intensified surveillance around infected holdings. Another chicken farm in Yunlin County was reported by the owner and was sampled by the LDCC. These samples had been sent to the National Laboratory, Animal Health Research Institute (AHRI) for analysis. Highly pathogenic avian influenza H5 subtype was confirmed by AHRI on 17 January, 10 February, 8 July and 20 April in 2018. These farms have been placed under movement restriction. All animals in these infected farms have been culled. Thorough cleaning and disinfection have been conducted after stamping out operation. Surrounding poultry farms within a three-kilometer radius of the infected farms are under intensified surveillance for three months.[/TD]
