Bird flu: fifteen new outbreaks in the Southwest

By lefigaro.fr, AFP, AP, Reuters Agencies Published on 22:23 12.16.2015

In total, France has 30 outbreaks of bird flu

Of these, nine cases have been established around infected farms. A total of 30 outbreaks of that disease "highly pathogenic for poultry" are identified in the region.

The bird flu scourge is growing. Fifteen new outbreaks have been detected since the start of the week in four southwestern departments of France, bringing the total number of confirmed cases to thirty, said the Ministry of Agriculture.

Of these new cases, nine were reported in the Landes, in the "restricted area" established around infected farms and already "on the occasion of a zone output for slaughter," the ministry said on its website.

These new outbreaks of avian influenza are located in the municipalities of Bergouey, Gaujacq, Hauriet, Momuy, Monsegur, Montaut, Saint-Cricq-Chalosse, Saint-Etienne-d'Orthe and Serrelous-and-Arribans. In Dordogne, two new outbreaks were detected in Campagnac-les Quercy, and a third in Saint-Armand-de-Coly, located in the restricted area. Two additional cases were reported in the Gers, one in a breeding of 2000 ducks and guinea fowls in Mirande, the other in a duck farm in Panjas in restricted area. Finally, a new outbreak was reported in the Pyrenees-Atlantiques, in a breeding of 1.240 ducks in Uzan.

Nontransferable strain to humans

Since the confirmation of a case of bird flu in Dordogne in late November, the first in France since 2007, there are, to date, 13 outbreaks in the Landes, 11 in Dordogne, 3 in the Gers, 2 in the Pyrenees-Atlantiques and 1 in Haute-Vienne.

The health and food safety agency (ANSES) said Monday that the virus strain found in the first infected farm "does not have the combination of genes it takes to be transmissible to humans." Two other strains were still being analyzed.

Around the affected sites, where animals are slaughtered and the premises disinfected, perimeters of protection and monitoring, respectively 3 and 10 km radius, are systematically implemented.

The government also banned the export of live birds and hatching eggs from Dordogne and 225 communes in the Landes. However, at least 17 countries and territories have imposed embargos, wide or targeted on French poultry products, including Japan, the largest market of Hexagon producer of foie gras.
