Jakarta, Kompas - the Government must return to the problem of the foundation in handling the spread of the bird flu virus. The main problem of bird flu in Indonesia was how determined the virus kind and knew the characteristics respectively the virus. Therefore, the mapping of the urgent virus kind was settled.

Now the basic problem of the handling of bird flu is how mapped the virus kind and the characteristics of the available bird flu virus in Indonesia. This mapping urgent was completed with the budget support and means-infrastructure was full so that the AI virus kind is immediately known.
Without having the complete mapping, the vaccination will not go effective. ?Baru after carrying out the mapping completely, the vaccine was looked for that was appropriate. After that, just the step penanganan,? he said.
Now, was based on WHO categorisation, the status of the spread of the bird flu virus in Indonesia achieved the stage of three.

Unfortunately, was not yet known in any area was gotten the poultry that became the virus bearer. Uptil now the mapping of the distribution of the bird flu virus be based on in the case findings of the death of the poultry because of bird flu.
?Dengan the existence of the phenomenon of the chicken as the virus bearer, the determination of the area was endemic bird flu or was not difficult dilakukan,? he said. Therefore, the mapping was very important was carried out. ?Sebab, was not possible for an illness to emerge suddenly like the earthquake, but must have his trip. Surveilans was needed to detect early the development of the virus from time to waktu,? Nidom words.
Surveilans was focussed on the susceptible animal was infected by bird flu that is the chicken, the duck, and migration birds by using the fast test or the laboratory test. Surveilans must be also done in the traditional market.
