Re: RUSSIA - Dead birds and fishes [and mice] in Tuvan Reserve
It's those insidious toadstools again!
Actually, the Russian word which babelfish keeps translating as 'toadstool' is Поганок -- which apparently IS some sort of toadstool -- is also some sort of crested grebe:

Toadstools ruined influenza
Forbidden lake on the boundary with the Mongolia declared by the quarantine zone
July 25, 2006
Moscow/Анна Ожерельева, Страна.Ru/. The quarantine measures, connected with the detection in the Republic Of Tyva of the focus of bird influenza, will be prolonged, at least, until 3 August. On this correspondent strany..R reported in the telephone conversation the chief for administration for the veterinary and fitosanitarnomu control Of Tuvy Of Bair Of Damdyn. The results of the last studies, carry ouied [out] in Vladimir, officially confirmed information about the fact that the mass case of bird in Ubsu-Nur lake was caused by the precisely bird influenza: is there discovered the gene of the virus of the influenza A of subtype H5N1. But for the first time the case of wild bird was fixed in the region of the forbidden lake Of Ubsu-Nur, which is located on the boundary of the Republic Of Tyva and Mongolia, in the middle of June.
The Ubsunurskaya basin - state natural biospheric preserve, which since 2003 is the component part of the object of the world heritage OF UNESCO. The animal peace Of Ubsu-Nur lake is very rich. Here dwell more than 350 it is specific feathered. Some of them are carried into the Red Book. Which is amazing, in the region of forbidden lake perish the birds only of one species - large toadstools, or chomgi, which feed exclusively by fish. The loss of mice and fish was simultaneously fixed with the feathered, said Mr. Damdyn. As the press-service OF MCHS [EMERGENCY AND DISASTER RELIEF MINISTRY] for Siberian federal region reports, in the preserve Of the Ubsu-Nurskeye basin only on 15 June there were assembled 169 fallen birds of different species and 30 dead fishes by the first they reported incident local residents. But loss of approximately 4 thousand toadstools is today registered.
In the middle of June into Kyzyl entered first data, sent for the examination for Kemerovo, where the specialists confirmed that the fallen birds were infected by influenza. However, Kemerovo veterinary surgeons could not then determine, what strain of virus became the reason for calamity, and studies were continued in the scientific center "vector" in Novosibirsk, where the laboratories, which conducted a study, revealed the presence in sick birds it was trace the potentially dangerous for the man strain of the virus of the bird influenza A of sub-type H5 (H5N1). On this it was declared at the session of the operational staff of the government Of Tuvy under vice-premier Sholban's chairmanship penalty-ool. However, for the commitment relative to epizootic disease the examination in the Russian scientific research institute of the protection of animals in Vladimir, which confirmed the previously obtained information, was carry ouied.
Nevertheless, even before obtaining of official data situation took under the control the main sanitary doctor of Russia Gennadi Onishchenko. Authorities isolated 1 million rubles to the burial dead ptakh, and operational staff with the government Of Tuvy declared the region of forbidden lake hazardous zone. At present by main management MCHS [EMERGENCY AND DISASTER RELIEF MINISTRY] of Russia in the republic Of Tyva and agency GO and CHS RT carry ouied a number of preventive measures for averting and spread of the influenza of birds to the territory Of Ovyurskogo and the boards -Xemskogo of Kozhuunov. Here arrived the operational brigades, which consist of doctors and colleagues Rospotrebnadzora and MCHS [EMERGENCY AND DISASTER RELIEF MINISTRY]. Special armored clothing are given out by person on duty. In the zone of epidemic the necessary preventive measures are conducted. Were here advanced additional posts DPS on the highways, and all shepherd stands were taken away further from the lake, access to which the outside persons was forbidden.
All inhabitants of the located hereabout populated area Saryg-tend they find under a constant medical observation. Daily on-duty brigades go around each court in the five-kilometer zone in order to in time reveal the symptoms of the influenza or other virus infections. Thus, in particular, are already made the necessary inoculations to local shepherds and to the members of their families. Almost 20 thousand head of poultry are vaccinated. In the region of lake the work on the utilization of the small carcasses of birds and disinfection continues, local limiting measures are introduced.
However, similar measures were accepted only from the Russian side, which is clearly insufficient for the stopping of epizootic disease, since the large part Of Ubsu-Nur lake was located on the territory of the Mongolia, where the facts of loss birds they do not confirm [they have confirmed bird deaths on the Mongolian side of the lake]. But preventive measures must be conducted in the entire territory of lake; therefore Tuva authorities do not exclude, which for the permission of situation it is necessary to draw the colleagues of president's administration RF.
By the way, the administration Of Rossel'khoznadzora for Novosibirskaya Oblast conducted laboratory investigations even in several Siberian regions. Antibodies and genetic material of the strain of influenza H5N1 were revealed in wild birds also in the Altai and by Krasnoyarsk edges, Novosibirsk and Tomskaya province. It seems that the bird influenza is not assembled to step back.
