Epidemiological comments

Samples from Yunlin County were sent to the National Laboratory, Animal Health Research Institute (AHRI) for diagnosis. Highly pathogenic avian influenza H5N2 subtype was confirmed by AHRI. The infected farm has been placed under movement restriction. All animals on the infected farm have been culled. Thorough cleaning and disinfection have been conducted after stamping out operation. Surrounding poultry farms within 3 km radius of the sampling spot are under intensified surveillance for three months. Suspected signs were observed in poultry carcasses during post-mortem inspection in one abattoir in Taipei City. Samples were sent to the AHRI for diagnosis. H5N2 subtype HPAI was confirmed by the AHRI. The carcasses were destroyed and thorough cleaning and disinfection have been conducted in the abattoir. After tracing back to the farm of origin, any positive results will be included in follow-up

Suspected signs were observed in poultry carcasses during post-mortem inspection in one abattoir in Taipei City. Samples were sent to the AHRI for diagnosis. H5N2 subtype HPAI was confirmed by the AHRI. The carcasses were destroyed and thorough cleaning and disinfection have been conducted in the abattoir. After tracing back to the farm of origin, any positive results will be included in follow-up reports.

Tainan layer farms infected with bird flu destroyed 8624 chickens and 560 kg eggs

2 hours ago

A "Laying Hen Farm" in the salt water district of Tainan City recently reported an abnormal death of poultry. After being sent for inspection, it was diagnosed today that it was infected with H5N5 highly pathogenic avian influenza. 8624 laying hens and 560 kg of eggs were culled and shipped to the incinerator for destruction.

The Animal Protection Department also strengthened monitoring and sampling measures for the surrounding of the layer farm, and continued to send disinfection vehicles to strengthen the spray disinfection work of the poultry farm and surrounding roads, to reduce the amount of pathogens in the environment and prevent the occurrence of avian influenza.

...The Nanshi Animal Protection Department pointed out that there have been sporadic cases of avian influenza in the country, indicating that there are still avian influenza viruses in the environment. This year, there have been a total of 35 confirmed cases in Taiwan, and the number of recent cases in Tainan has increased. Poultry farm inspection and counseling have been initiated and various epidemic prevention measures have been strengthened to try to keep the virus out of the farm.
