    Svínahirðar taldir hafa smitað svín

    Talið er líklegt að svínaflensa sé komin upp á Suðurnesjum á einu af stærstu svínabúum landsins. Sýni voru tekin þar í dag. Tveir af fjórum svínahirðum á búinu voru með einkenni inflúensu í síðustu viku en þeir voru ekki bólusettir þótt þeir væru í forgangshópi.

    Svínabúið sem um ræðir er á Minni Vatnsleysu á Suðurnesjum. Þar eru um 4000 svín, þar af um 400 gyltur. Grunur um veikindi vaknaði um helgina þegar fór að bera á lystarleyti hjá gyltum á búinu og þá voru sumar þeirra farnar að hósta. Gunnar Örn Guðmundsson héraðsdýralæknir fékk svo tilkynningu í morgun.

    Sýnin eru nú í ræktun á tilraunastöð háskóla íslands að keldum en reynist þessi grunur réttur er þetta í fyrsta sinn sem svín hér á landi smitast af svínaflensu.
