Avian Influenza Disease Emergency: issue No. 27 (28/01/2005)
Outbreaks of H5N1 Highly Pathogenic Avian Influenza (HPAI) in poultry were reported in Thailand and Viet Nam, and human cases were reported in Viet Nam during the preceding month. Having lunar New Year day on 9 February, movement of poultry and poultry products will increase in the region. The need for biosecurity of domestic poultry to prevent infection and enhanced early warning in order to detect every additional case are highest during this season to avoid new cases of HPAI in poultry and to minimise the risk to humans.
