The AVIAN FLU – REMAINS FOR TODAY is ACTUAL

Vysokopatogennj an avian flu – a kontagiozny, anthropo-zoonoznoye disease of a house, sinantropny, wild, dekorativyony bird. The causative agent of high-pathogenic flu – the virus H5N1.

The disease it is accompanied by very high lethality, nano­sitsya a big economic damage to farms of all forms of a sobstvenyonost, whether it be pricefabrika or a rural farmstead. Mortality of a bird makes 15 % and more.

Unfortunately this trouble in January of last year came and to our Kirov area. The bird in one of village farmsteads Gold Paul fell ill.

Service of the state veterinary medicine in common with service Ministry of Emergency Situations of the area operated eksyotrenno, professionally, harmoniously. Having received the message from the hostess about a disease and a case of a bird on her farmstead, a veterinary link within 20 minutes in full equipment, having at itself disinfectants, sprayers OP-202 "Fog", means of the individual are sewn up, left in Gold Paul. At clinical survey of a bird the preliminary diagnosis – suspicion on bird flu was made. Selection pathological mate­riala is made and urgently within two hours is delivered to Simferopol in the Crimean Respubliyokansky laboratory of veterinary medicine.

Results of laboratory research weren’t received yet, and the link already led all primary protivoepizootichesky a meroyopriyatiya: disinfection of rooms, yard, withdrawal and destruction of a bird. Next day the fax received the results of the examination which have confirmed existence of the virus H5N1 of high-pathogenic flu.

At the Kirov district state administration Chrezvyyochaynaya the protivoepizootichesky commission, a staff on elimination of a high-pathogenic disease of a bird was urgently created.

Localization and elimination of a disease were carried out according to earlier developed and approved as the head of the district state administration of the plan.

Urgently, are during the day created 4 quarantine veterinary and militian posts on which experts of veterinary medicine round the clock kept watch, carrying out the professional duties on disinfection of transport leaving a quarantine zone and its survey, on a post police officers and GAI together worked.

In memory forever there are these frosty days when tempe­ratura environment decreased to-23-250, disinfectant solution with preservatives froze even.

Experts of veterinary medicine, without exaggerating I will tell, courageously worked, temporarily left the children, families and were on duty days on posts, executing the professional duty. Nobody complained. So worked long 21 day of quarantine. The frost crackled, the Crimean wind blew, the electric power, and consequently warmly in carriages was continually disconnected. By the management of the Kirov district state administration it was done the utmost for activity of experts on a post: lighting, heat, is organized thrice hot meals. Large sums are spent for actions from the budget of the area.

Experts nevertheless didn’t suffice, and then the management of veterinary medicine found possibility in AR Crimea to involve to the aid staff of experts of the Bakhchsarai, May Day, Nizhnegorsky areas. Before our experts worked in the centers of bird flu in Feodosiya, Soviet, Nizhnegorsky. The staff of GAI of Feoyodosiya and Kerch were involved also.

Process was localized, the zaboleyovaniye is liquidated, thank God didn’t extend in other farmsteads and settlements.

But also today the situation remains intense. It is unsuccessful with this disease in the countries of Europe and the World, special threat is represented by Krasnodar Krai and Moscow area Rossiysyoka Federatsii. So and we have a real threat of emergence of bird flu.

The state veterinary medicine takes now all preventive measures: doctors of veterinary medicine daily make household rounds with clinical osyomotry birds, do inoculations against an illness of Newcastle, ve­dut monitoring researches. Questions of prevention of bird flu are discussed at meetings of the Extreme protivoepizootichesky. Data on necessary actions are led up to local government bodies, city, settlement and village councils. Information on bird flu is published in the Kirovets newspaper, sounds by radio, instructions about the closed maintenance of a bird extend among the population leaflets and information leaflets.

However it becomes offensive, when you see as some owners contain a bird freely vygulno, thereby risking not only to lose a livestock, but also to cause a big damage to all area. After all actions at a mimizatsiya of consequences of this flu manage very expensively.

The virus of bird flu is dangerous and that possesses ability quickly to mutate. Therefore transition just seeing animals to another is potentially possible. Scientists are afraid that bird flu evolves in a new form which can quickly ras­prostranyatsya among people, causing a high-infectious mortally dangerous disease.
