Vietnam: Bùng of HPAI: Psychology of Home is the cause

12/02/2009

On 5/01/2009, at the meeting the Steering Committee national flu influenza, the Department of Animal Health (MARD) asserted, flu has been basically controlled. However, to this time, and are spreading in many localities, even had a positive patients with influenza virus A H5N1.
Article significant concern is the home of the people, the guidance has not drastically by local authorities, industry functions can cause a disease caused Bùng play on a large scale.

HPAI "reproduction"

Nghe An is one of the local first appear HPAI recently. 12/2008 since last month, and has Bùng at a family in Nghi Phong (Nghi Loc district); location next Disease "ask" is Minh Son commune (Do Luong district). 4/2/2009 To date, 200 have ducks on the area in Minh Son is sick, dies.

At present, HPAI is the place complex, especially in the Mekong Delta. On 4 / 2, Ca Mau People's Committee has announced HPAI occurred in Khanh Binh (Tran Van Thoi district). First place is the ducks out of 700 family Nguyen Van Dong in Village Rach Bao (Khanh Binh commune). In addition, the animal has detected more ducks out of 10 households in Khanh Binh (Tran Van Thoi district) and Tan Loc Bac (Thoi Binh district) with death, with a total ducks all over 2700 children.

Appear not only in Ca Mau, HPAI has spread to Soc Trang and Hau Giang. On 5 / 2, Nguyen Huu Minh, Deputy Department Its Health Soc Trang province confirmed the first outbreak in 2009 of the province appears in overwhelm Vienna, Vienna Binh commune (My Xuyen district). It is a duck out of 682 family Ly SA outlook, with test results positive for H5N1 virus.

Hau Giang also detected 4 points occur HPAI in Vi Thuy district, the total influenza infection and destroys about 1,200 children.

Thus, up to the 9 / 2, and avian influenza have appeared, spread in 5 provinces, including Quang Ninh, Nghe An, Ca Mau, Soc Trang and Hau Giang. If the beginning of 2009 to present, HPAI has appeared in seven provinces (in addition to the five provinces have Thanh Hoa and Thai Nguyen has more than 21 days does not a new outbreak).

This is worrying, in this stage and had patients with influenza A H5N1 infection. It is judicious in your Mùi Port Na, An Quang commune (Dam Ha - Quang Ninh). Ha said she does have a fever, chest pain, difficulty breathing, are being actively treated in General Hospital in Quang Ninh Province. Before that, she quit eating chicken meat.

As the owner?

Whether have borders click "over the stage and, even those who pay their price with the owner of the psychological, lethargy in the prevention of disease is still found in people, even in the authorities and industry functions. This may be the cause of the disease cause rapidly spreading.

For example in Hau Giang, 4 flocks of ducks infected with influenza are not vaccinated vaccine epidemic prevention. Steering Committee for prevention of the disease, plants Hau Giang also recognize, one reason happens HPAI is caused by the vaccination and disease management time climbing through the liquid rate low vaccination ...

With HPAI, and lo mồm long móng also appear. This time, and lo mồm long móng out on animals are the place complex. In Quang Binh, and occurred in 7 of 69 households of 10 villages under Xuan Trach (Bo Trach district). Total buffaloes, cows are 147 sick children.

In Kon Tum, up to 9 / 2, has 54 villages of 32 communes of 6 districts have. To date, disease has spread in some provinces as Long An, Son La, Hoa Binh ...

Most local outbreaks detected when all request the same center, resolve and surrounding areas, simultaneously, vác vaccinated - for poultry. The focal point must be made regularly, the continuity is performed only when urgent meeting "and all have." Control the transport, sale of poultry still pattern "to back up an appointment", that is when the disease drastically, and then is almost empty. More concerned than the awareness of people when recently, while the functions of Hanoi conducted all 1500 chicken in Hong Van (Thuong Tin district) do not have the quarantine, local people kick the bucket robbed of all chicken feed.

In the Mekong Delta, where 20 million children to influenza, people are still indifferent dispose chickens, ducks floating dead in the river, flocks of ducks running tung still increasing swimming next to the "contract types". Problems control ducks running between the local Ca Mau, Bac Lieu, Soc Trang, Kien Giang, Hau Giang difficult. The reasons are the channel system, the canal no chit while the animal is too thin.

Many ideas that the Mekong Delta provinces should have the link, coordination to control the running ducks and transporting poultry. In particular, it should have tracking schedule vaccination vaccine ducks out of the running contract. Is the proposal, but the face of this long run of ducks moved from region to region not vaccinated, only measures that ... tag home and breeding flocks of ducks running back local.

Deployment fold epidemic prevention measures

It is directed by the Minister of Agriculture and Rural Development Cao Duc Phat in the number of urgent 05/CD-BNN-TY. Accordingly, the local needs to focus on the mob quickly, extinguish outbreak avian influenza, not to spread out a large scale, organized destroyed all poultry is infected, resolvent khử center and the area, raising at least 3 times a week. Continue to organize additional vaccination day for poultry to the age, to consider the vaccine and flocks been omitted in the campaign by local injection. MARD also proposed strengthening the province to check on prevention and at the base line; reviewing plans prevention disease on cattle and poultry at local control and treatment of the trade, slaughter, consumption, transportation, illegal animals, poultry and livestock products, poultry, particularly in the provinces have high risk provinces and border line.
