By Krittivas Mukherjee
MUMBAI, Jan 23 (Reuters) - India, fighting a bird flu outbreak in poultry that threatens to get out of control, will build several new laboratories in a bid to combat delays in testing the virus and spur faster public health reponses.
As avian influenza sweeps the country's most densely populated state of West Bengal, India's only laboratory specialising in testing bird flu is dealing with many times the number of samples it can handle.
Hundreds of samples of dead birds are being sent every week to the High Security Animal Disease Laboratory in the central city of Bhopal to test for what the World Health Organisation says is the worst outbreak of bird flu in India.
"It has been decided to build several new laboratories especially in view of the bird flu situation now," Santanu Kumar Bandyopadhyay, India's animal husbandry commissioner told Reuters late on Tuesday. "Things are moving quickly."
While the laboratory clears the backlog, veterinary workers at potentially infected areas wait for the signal to begin culling poultry, often running the risk of the virus spreading.
Officials say new laboratories and research facilities are imperative in view of the rapid spread of the avian flu in the eastern state of West Bengal. To begin with, at least six laboratories are being built which will be of biosafety level-3 (BSL-3), or clinical and diagnostic facilities that work with potentially lethal agents.
The new laboratories will supplement the efforts of the Bhopal laboratory.
"These centres will come up at existing regional diseases diagnostic laboratories," Bandyopadhyay said.
"They will be capable of handling emergencies arising out of the avian influenza virus."
India's latest bird flu outbreak in poultry has killed thousands of birds in West Bengal where a massive operation is on to cull hundreds of thousands of fowl.
Bird flu has spread to seven of West Bengal's 19 districts and bird deaths are being reported from new areas every day.
At least 24 million people live in the affected districts, two of which have been confirmed to be infected with the deadly H5N1 strain.
India has never reported any human infection, but experts fear uninformed villagers, some of whom are still eating poultry in infected zones, could contract bird flu. They say the H5N1 strain of bird flu could mutate into a form easily transmitted from human to human, leading to a pandemic. (Editing by Alistair Scrutton and Katie Nguyen)

Deadly bird flu spreads to two more Bengal districts

West Bengal's unchecked bird flu epidemic spread to two more districts on Wednesday, one right on the outskirts of Kolkata and the other on the Assam border. Well over two million poultry in nine districts are now affected and will have to be culled.
West Bengal Animal Resource Development Minister Anisur Rahman confirmed to IANS on Wednesday that the deadly H5N1 bird flu virus had been found among poultry in Hooghly district, barely 30 kms from the metropolis here.
The same virus had been found in Dinhata area of Cooch Behar district on the Assam border, Rahman added.
Facing all-round criticism for the tardy pace of the culling operation that has seen the spread of the epidemic even eight days after it was announced, the state government on Wednesday said it was making spot payments to mitigate the losses of the affected rural families immediately.
"We have already disbursed Rs 45 million as compensation. We will disburse more money as and when required. The payments are being made on the spot itself or through the panchayats," West Bengal Animal Resource Development Minister Anisur Rahman told IANS on Wednesday.
Earlier, farmers were being given tokens at culling sites and asked to contact their panchayat or village block offices for compensation money. The payment is Rs 40 for a country chicken, Rs 30 for a broiler and Rs 10 for a chick.
Even before the spread of the epidemic to the eighth and ninth districts, the cull target had gone to a whopping 2.1 million.
On Tuesday, the centre's Animal Husbandry Secretary Pradeep Kumar said here that around 256,000 birds had been slaughtered and about 150 experts from other states would join the operation.
"Our concern is to find out how the disease spread from the initial outbreak in Birbhum and South Dinajpur districts," Kumar said.
The operation will be ramped up with induction of personnel from Haryana, Tamil Nadu, Assam, Orissa, Punjab and Maharashtra, officials said.
A team comprising officials from the union animal husbandry department and their counterparts from the states will monitor the possible spread of bird flu to Bihar, Jharkhand, Orissa and the Northeast, Kumar said.
The centre has provided the state with 5,000 sets of protective gear for the culling teams.
"More protective gear will be sent. Bird flu is a national problem," Kumar said.
The H5N1 virus causes a type of influenza in birds that is highly contagious and can be deadly. It does not usually infect people unless they come in close contact with infected birds or contaminated surfaces. All human samples tested for infection have proved negative so far.
The nine districts now in the grip of the bird flu epidemic are Birbhum, South Dinajpur, Murshidabad, Nadia, Burdwan, Bankura, Malda, Hooghly and Cooch Behar.
Several states have banned the import of chicken from West Bengal. The central government has asked the state to seal its borders with Bangladesh, Nepal and Bhutan.

Kolkata, January 23:
Cooch Behar and Hoogly were on Wednesday declared bird flu hit, taking the number of affected districts in the state to nine even as authorities set a target of culling three lakh chicken daily.

Samples of chicken sent from Cooch Behar and Hooghly districts to the Highrisk Security Disease Laboratory (HSDL) in Bhopal yesterday tested positive," Animal Resources Development Minister Anisur Rahaman said.

"We have been informed by the Centre. Steps will be taken accordingly," he said.

"Steps are being taken to officially notify both Cooch Behar and Hooghly districts bird flu affected, for the next course of action including culling," Rahaman said.

The samples which tested positive were from Dinhata in Cooch Behar district and Balagarh in Hooghly district, he said.

There was, however, no case of humans beings being affected, the minister said.

The target of culling which was set at 20 lakh was also likely to increase, he said.

The daily target now was three lakh with 600 teams on the job from today, he said.

About 150 technical teams from eight states, including Haryana, Assam, Maharashtra, Orissa and Jharkhand would soon join to monitor the culling.

West Bengal's border with neighbouring states has already been sealed, the minister said.

Warden Message

U.S. Consulate General
Kolkata, India
January 22, 2008
TOWN HALL MEETING ON AVIAN INFLUENZA FOR AMERICAN CITIZENS

The United States Mission is monitoring carefully the outbreak of H5N1 Avian Influenza in Eastern India. The Government of India has confirmed that the outbreak is spreading to other districts of the state of West Bengal, and unconfirmed reports have been received from districts near Kolkata. U.S. citizens should monitor local media for developments and the latest information on affected areas so that they can avoid travel to the areas with concentrations of the disease. It is also very important that U.S. citizens follow the advice of local government health officials who are responding to the outbreak.
All U.S. citizens are encouraged to practice good hygiene, such as washing hands, scrupulously cleaning food preparation areas, and fully cooking food. In addition, U.S. citizens are advised to avoid close contact with any fowl, such as chickens and ducks, to stay clear of any sick birds, and to not visit "wet" markets where poultry are slaughtered.
The U.S. Consulate General in Kolkata will host a "town hall" meeting on Friday, January 25, 2008, at 2:30 PM for all U.S. citizens to answer questions regarding Avian Influenza. The meeting will take place in the Lincoln Room at the American Center, located at 38-A, Jawaharlal Nehru Road, Kolkata 700 071.
While it is possible that humans will eventually contract this deadly disease, U.S. citizens in India are reminded that Avian Influenza is primarily a disease of birds. People who have contracted Avian Influenza have generally had close and prolonged contact with infected birds (usually chickens or ducks), their feces, or their blood. Human-to-human transmission has been exceptional, and has been the result of sustained, close contact with the infected individual.
All U.S. citizens should consider their medium-term plans in the unlikely event that Avian Influenza ever becomes a virulent human disease, or pandemic flu. Pandemic planning information is available at www.pandemicflu.gov.
For further information on avian influenza, the U.S. Consulate suggests that you consult the U.S. Department of State's Avian Influenza Fact Sheet at http://travel.state.gov/travel/tips/health/health_1181.htm, and the U.S. Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) web site at http://www.cdc.gov/flu/avian/index.htm. World Health Organization (WHO) guidance related to Avian Influenza is available at http://www.who.int/csr/disease/avian_influenza/en/.
Americans living or traveling in India are encouraged to register with the nearest U.S. Embassy or Consulate through the State Department's travel registration web site, https://travelregistration.state.gov/, and to obtain updated information on travel and security within India. Americans without Internet access may register directly with the U.S. Embassy or the nearest Consulate. By registering, American citizens make it easier for the Embassy or Consulate to contact them in case of emergency.
The U.S. Consulate in Kolkata is located at 5/1 Ho Chi Minh Sarani, Kolkata, India 700071 and can be reached by telephone at +91-33-3984-2400, by fax at +91-33-2282-2335 or via e-mail at consularkolkata@state.gov.

Re: India - Bird Flu in Poultry/Animals Jan 21+

W Bengal bird flu 'is spreading'
<TABLE><TBODY><TR><TD width=5></TD><TD class=fact>
</TD></TR></TBODY></TABLE>Officials in the Indian state of West Bengal say that the bird flu epidemic has spread to two more of the state's 19 districts, taking the total to nine.
They say that the spread of the H5N1 virus means that even more chicken and duck will have to be killed than was originally estimated.
On Monday officials said that around 2m birds would need to be culled - a figure that will now rise. Health experts have warned that the outbreak could get out of control.

The H5N1 strain of bird flu is regarded as highly pathogenic and can also cause disease and death in humans.
However, most human victims have contracted the disease through close contact with affected birds.
There is little evidence that the virus can be transmitted easily between humans.
'Very serious'
West Bengal's Minister for animal research and development, Anisur Rehman, told the BBC there are currently 650 culling teams in the state.

They have now been ordered to extend their chicken and duck killing operation from seven to nine districts.
He said that one of the districts most recently affected, Hoogly, is close to Calcutta and contains the state's largest chicken hatchery - which has not yet been affected.
Mr Rehman said that another district recently hit by the virus, Cochbihar, is close to the border with Bangladesh.
West Bengal has sealed a stretch of its border with Bangladesh, which has been fighting to contain the spread of bird flu since March last year.
Experts in Bangladesh have warned that the outbreak of the virus is far worse than the government is reporting.
"Bird flu is now everywhere. Every day we have reports of birds dying in farms," leading Bangladeshi poultry expert MM Khan told the AFP news agency.
"Things are now very serious and public health is [in] danger," he said, alleging that farmers were reluctant to report new cases.
Logistical challenge
The BBC's Amitabha Bhattasali in Calcutta says the authorities in West Bengal face the same problems, with reports of people hiding chicken and duck to stop them from being killed.

Our correspondent say the authorities face a major logistical challenge, because many of the chickens in infected areas roam around in the open and in many cases have to be chased and caught before they can be killed.
On Monday a team of officials from Delhi told the state government that the pace of the culling operation is too slow.
At the same time, the state government warned that the virus was getting "out of hand".
It has appealed to eight other Indian states - including Maharashtra and Tamil Nadu - for assistance in the culling operation.
So far only about 300,000 birds have been disposed of.
Correspondents say that the problem is made worse because many poor and illiterate farmers are sometimes misinformed about basic hygiene.
Dead birds are reported to have been dumped in village wells and ponds by people not aware of the risks from the H5N1 virus.

India's Avian Flu Outbreak Is `Serious,' WHO Says (Update1)

By Jay Shankar
Jan. 23 (Bloomberg) -- An outbreak of avian flu in India's West Bengal state is ``serious'' and the virus has spread rapidly to many districts, the World Health Organization's representative said.
The outbreak is the 10th in India since the H5N1 avian influenza virus was first reported to have killed poultry there in February 2006. No human cases have been recorded in India.
India has the capacity to handle the situation as the ``fundamentals of planning are sound,'' S.J. Habayeb, the organization's representative in the South Asian nation, said in an interview conducted over e-mail.
The disease has spread to more districts in West Bengal, taking the total number to nine, Farm Minister Sharad Pawar said in New Delhi today. ``We are trying to control the situation.''
The government has culled 242,000 chickens since the disease was reported among poultry Jan. 15 in the eastern state, the agriculture ministry has said.
As many as 113,796 chickens have died from the virus, the ministry said in a release. Samples from six districts have tested negative. About 258 teams have been deployed for culling and surveillance operations in West Bengal, the ministry added.
`Backyard Culling'
``The main problem we are facing is culling in the backyards,'' Anisur Rahman, West Bengal's animal resources minister, said in a telephone interview from the state capital of Kolkata, also known as Calcutta. ``In other places, where the disease was reported, the farmers carried their poultry to a central farm in a village. Here, volunteers have to go to each house and convince farmers to do the culling.''
The teams, working in the villages, have gone up from 400 to 650 today, Rahman said.
``Culling is going on at a rapid pace,'' he said. ``At the same time, we are faced with a situation where poultry is being tested positive from new areas which are far-flung.''
The virus is known to have infected 351 people in 14 countries since late 2003, killing 219 of them, the Geneva-based World Health Organization said on its Web site two days ago. Indonesia has the highest number of fatalities, with 97 deaths.
Millions could die if the H5N1 virus develops the characteristics of seasonal flu and begins spreading easily between humans through coughing and sneezing.
Early signs of the disease range from fever and coughing to diarrhea and vomiting, researchers said in a Jan. 17 report in the New England Journal of Medicine.

Culling in Bihar, a neighbouring state of West Bengal

- snip -

Meanwhile, the Bihar Government has ordered culling of chicken in six panchayat areas of Katihar district adjacent to bird flu-affected Malda district of West Bengal.

The Bihar government has already banned import of poultry from the neighbouring state. "We have put a blanket ban on import of birds from West Bengal in the wake of reports of the dreaded H5N1 virus spreading there," Deputy Chief Minister Sushil Kumar Modi, who is also holding the portfolio of Animal and Fishery Resources, said.

Half of Bengal now affected by bird flu
Author: PTI Date: 23 Jan 2008
Kolkata: Cooch Behar and Hoogly were today declared bird flu hit, taking the number of affected districts in the state to nine, even as authorities set a target of culling three lakh chicken daily.

"Samples of chicken sent from Cooch Behar and Hooghly districts to the Highrisk Security Disease Laboratory (HSDL) in Bhopal yesterday tested positive," Animal Resources Development Minister Anisur Rahaman told PTI today.

"We have been informed by the Centre. Steps will be taken accordingly," he said.

?Steps are being taken to officially notify both Cooch Behar and Hooghly districts as bird flu affected, for the next course of action including culling," Rahaman said.

The samples which tested positive were from Dinhata in Cooch Behar district and Balagarh in Hooghly district, he said.
There was, however, no case of human beings being affected, the minister said.

The target of culling which was set at 20 lakh was also likely to increase, he said. The daily target now was three lakh with 600 teams on the job from today, he said.

About 150 technical teams from eight states, including Haryana, Assam, Maharashtra, Orissa and Jharkhand would soon join to monitor the culling. West Bengal's border with neighbouring states has already been sealed, the minister said.

In the already affected districts, the H5N1 virus was reported from more blocks in Nadia and Murshidabad districts.
Nadia District Magistrate Omkar Meena said the virus spread to Haringhata and Nakhashipara blocks. An action plan was being prepared for these two areas. Culling was on in the other affected areas.

In Murshidabad district, the disease spread to Galsir-1 block, district officials said. Eight other blocks have already been affected.

In Malda, declared affected yesterday, culling could not start today because of shortage of staff, Deputy Director of Animal Resource Development department, N K **** said.

In Burdwan district, due to a dispute between the administrations of Kalna and Katwa, no action has been taken so far to control the disease in eight villages under Purbastahli block. Burdwan District Magistrate Subir Chatterjee had to intervene and ask the Katwa administration to begin culling from today.

Meanwhile, about 700 chickens died in Bardhaman town last night. While a Central team arrived in Birbhum district this morning, death of chickens was reported from Howrah district, which is unaffected so far. The district borders Kolkata.

In Cooch Behar district, the district's animal resources department sources said deaths of chicken were reported at Khalisamari of Mathabhanga-I block. ARD sources in the district said that bird deaths were reported from four blocks out of 12. These were Dinhata-I, Cooch Behar-I, Mathabhanga-I and Mekhliganj. In Haribhanga of Cooch Behar-I, carcasses of 10 migratory birds were found yesterday. The samples were sent to Kolkata.

W Bengal admits falling behind in bird flu battle

West Bengal admitted on Wednesday it was falling behind in its battle against bird flu as the virus spread to more than half the densely populated state.
Despite reinforcements from neighbouring states, at least 1,000 more vets and doctors were needed to help fight the poultry virus outbreak that began over a week ago, state animal resources minister Anisur Rahaman said.
"We don't have the infrastructure to battle this epidemic. Bird flu is spreading to new areas. Thousands of chickens are dropping dead every day," he told AFP.
Hundreds more culling teams had been sent to 10 districts where bird flu had been confirmed, but not all of them were accompanied by doctors, he said. West Bengal has 19 districts.
"We've asked neighbouring states to send at least 1,000 veterinary and human doctors," said Rahaman. "We've urged the federal government to send expert teams and doctors to assess the situation and help the culling teams."
The previous target of culling two million birds had been raised to 2.2 million "in the next seven days as the disease has spread to two more districts," he said. Nearly 400,000 birds have already been killed.
The new outbreak -- the third and worst to hit India -- began in Margram village, 240 kilometres (150 miles) from the state capital Kolkata.
India has so far not had any human cases of bird flu but Rahaman said he feared the disease would spread to humans with hundreds of people reporting flu symptoms in the state of 80 million.
"Naked children are playing with chickens in courtyards in affected villages. Chickens are roaming in the kitchen while women are cooking. It's a very worrisome situation," he said.
"Reports keep pouring in that many people in flu-affected districts are suffering fever, cold and cough," state health minister Surya Kanta Mishra added. Humans with bird flu exhibit similar symptoms.
People typically catch bird flu by coming into direct contact with infected poultry. Experts fear a pandemic if the deadly H5N1 strain of bird flu mutates into a form easily transmissible between humans.
An AFP correspondent in the bird flu zone said proper isolation procedures were not being followed as villagers without protective gear milled about health workers carrying out the culling.
Culling teams were facing resistance from locals but villagers started handing over their poultry on Wednesday after the government began giving out immediate compensation for the dead birds. The outbreak was expected to hit poultry owners hard.
"Most of my chickens have been culled," said Jayanta Bhattacharya, a poultry owner whose farm had 30,000 chickens laying some 80,000 eggs each week. "I've already suffered a loss of Rs 400,000 ( $10,000 )."
Sri Lanka banned imports on Wednesday of live birds and chickens from India, a government official said.
Migratory birds have been largely blamed for the global spread of the disease which has killed over 200 people worldwide since 2003.
Meanwhile in neighbouring Bangladesh, nearly 2,000 chickens died of bird flu at a farm 20 kilometres (12 miles) near the capital Dhaka, prompting authorities to seal off the area and slaughter hundereds of birds.
All 1,963 birds in the farm found dead on Tuesday were killed by the lethal H5N1 strain, government spokeswoman Ayesha Khatun said.
Bangladesh reported its first H5N1 outbreak in February 2007. Since then it has been detected in 26 of the country's 64 districts, prompting the slaughter of at least 355,000 birds.
Authorities said the situation has worsened in the past week but insisted it was contained and erupting only sporadically.
"We don't think the situation is as bad as in West Bengal," livestock department director Salahuddin Khan said.
Experts differed, saying the situation was far worse than government claims and that farmers were refraining from reporting many cases.
