South Korea-Avian tuberculosis found for first time in 50 years

01-21-2011 18:38

By Lee Hyo-sik A new animal epidemic is looming large here, following foot-and-mouth disease (FMD) and bird flu, as a group of chickens found dead at poultry farms in the eastern part of the country tested positive, Thursday, for avian tuberculosis, which had not been detected here for the past 50 years. The finding has dealt a serious blow to quarantine officials and livestock farms, which have been working day and night to contain the spread of FMD and bird flu for more than a month. According to quarantine officials, avian tuberculosis is a slow spreading chronic bacterial infection. There is neither treatment for infected birds nor vaccines to prevent the disease. Control can only be achieved through depopulation and proper sanitation practices, including rodent control and screening wild birds. There have been no reported cases in which humans contracted the virus from eating infected meat or coming into contact with it. But those with a weak immune system could become infected. The Gangwon Provincial Government said that three chickens found dead at a poultry farm in Gangneung had tested positive for avian tuberculosis. About 15 dead chickens at a nearby farm were also positive for the disease. The owners of the infected farms said dozens of chickens died everyday over the past week, adding they notified the provincial government of the incident to find out why they died. “We confirmed that the dead chickens died from avian tuberculosis. But to be 100 percent sure, we will ask the National Veterinary Research & Quarantine Service to redo the test. If it tests positive again, we will cull all 6,100 chickens and ducks raised in the two infected farms to prevent the spread of the disease,” a provincial government official said. He said the latest outbreak is the first of its kind since 1961, adding the provincial and all municipal administrations will make every effort to stop the spread of the infection. “Avian tuberculosis is not as fatal as bird flu. Also, it spreads at a much slower pace. But the problem is there are no known treatments for infected birds. No vaccines have been developed to prevent it either,” the official said. The best preventive measure is to keep farms clean and minimize birds’ contact with the outside. Those infected must be destroyed. “There have been no reports of humans being infected with avian tuberculosis. We strongly advise poultry farmers to make their farms off-limits to outsiders and regularly disinfect sheds. If unusual symptoms are detected in poultry, report it immediately to the provincial government,” he stressed.

HONG KONG, Jan. 21 (Xinhua) -- A dead large-billed crow found in Tai O, Lantau Island of Hong Kong was confirmed to be H5N1 virus positive, a spokesman for the city's Agriculture, Fisheries and Conservation Department said on Friday.

The bird carcass was collected at Sun Ki Street, Tai O on Jan. 18. It was highly decomposed when found and required a series of tests before avian influenza was confirmed Friday.

The spokesman said the large-billed crow is a common resident bird in Hong Kong and there were no poultry farms within three kilometers of where the dead bird was found.

To minimize the risk of avian influenza outbreaks, he said, all relevant government departments would continue to remain highly vigilant and strictly enforce preventive measures against avian influenza, such as reinforcing health education and striving to deter illegal imports of poultry and birds into Hong Kong.

Disease outbreak cripples South Korea

Seoul News.Net
Friday 21st January, 2011

Foot-and-mouth disease has broken out in South Korea causing a mass culling of millions of animals.

The South Korean military has been called in to help deal with the effects of the devastation, and to help stem the spreading of the disease. The military has already killed two million cows and pigs so far, and vaccinated tens of millions more.

The South Korean agriculture ministry advised on Thursday the current outbreak is the worst in the country's history.

The cost of dealing with the crisis has already soared well above $1 billion, the ministry said, largely through a substantial loss of exports.

129 cases have been confirmed since November 28 which has resulted in 22% of the swine population and nearly 4% of the cattle population being culled. Vaccinations are continuing across the country as the government tries to limit the number of animals that need to be destroyed, a CNN report said Friday.

The government introduced travel restrictions for livestock and ordered cattle markets to be shut shortly after the latest outbreak on November 28 in the southern city of Andong.

As a result, pork and beef imports are up and retail prices of both have risen almost 9% in just a month, the CNN reportt said.

The spread of bird flu is also putting pressure on South Korean farmers, with almost 4 million birds culled so far.

The U.S. Department of Agriculture describes foot-and-mouth disease as "a severe, highly contagious viral disease of cattle and swine."

WHO: Avian influenza - situation in Egypt - update 42

20 January 2011 - The Ministry of Health of Egypt has announced a new case of human infection of H5N1 avian influenza. A 1-year-old male from Alexandria Governorate, developed symptoms on 12 January and was hospitalized on 13 January. He is in a stable condition.

Investigations into the source of infection indicated that the case had exposure to poultry.

The case was confirmed by the Egyptian Central Public Health Laboratories, a National Influenza Center of the WHO Global Influenza Surveillance Network (GISN).

Of the 121 cases confirmed to date in Egypt, 40 have been fatal.

FMD means Koreans urged not to travel (or travel to Jeollanam-do) for Lunar New Year.

The Korea Times writes about local governments' efforts to discourage Koreans from travelling around the country this Seollal in order to prevent further spread of foot-and-mouth disease.

Many Koreans who work and live in Seoul and other urban areas were born and raised in the provinces. It is a decades-old tradition that they visit their hometowns to see their parents, relatives and friends at least twice a year ― the Lunar New Year (or Seollal) and Chuseok holidays.

But this biannual ritual may not materialize during the upcoming Lunar New Year holiday from Feb. 2 to 6 as the mass migration could cause the spread of foot-and-mouth (FMD) disease and bird flu to uninfected areas.

Since the first FMD outbreak was reported in Andong, North Gyeongsang Province, on Nov. 29, the deadly virus has spread to nearly all parts of the country, except for the southern regions ― South Gyeongsang Province, North Jeolla Province, South Jeolla Province and Jeju Island.

. . .

In a desperate attempt to stop the devastating epidemic, scores of provincial governments have launched a campaign to prevent people from traveling to other areas during the Lunar New Year holiday.

Among others, South Jeolla Province, which has seen not a single case of FMD, is asking those who plan to visit there during the five-day holiday not to do so in a bid to stop the spread of the highly infectious virus.

The provincial government has asked dozens of organizations made up of individuals born in the country’s southwestern province not to visit their hometowns.

``If we can prevent FMD from spreading to our area during the upcoming holiday, we are positive that South Jeolla Province will remain FMD-free. It is not easy to say this but we desperately need people who have family members here not to come this time,’’ said Lee Ki-ho, director of the livestock quarantine department at the South Jeolla Provincial Government.

The other 362 days out of the year you couldn't convince many Koreans, or expats for that matter, to visit Jeollanam-do, but as The Waygook Effect says given how little vacation time Koreans take it's unlikely that local officials will discourage Koreans from driving cross-country for one of its biggest holidays.

The North is last widely known to have suffered an outbreak of the disease in 2007. Seoul sent a team of experts to help stem the disease amid a reconciliatory atmosphere. Nearly all cross-border exchanges have been halted by the Lee Myung-bak administration in the wake of the March sinking of a South Korean warship, an incident blamed on the North. Foot and mouth disease, which spreads mostly through direct contact between animals, causes high fevers followed by blisters on the mouth and feet of cloven-hoofed livestock.

Foot-and-mouth now in North, says military

Foot-and-mouth now in North, says military January 18, 2011

North Korea is apparently suffering from its own bout of foot-and-mouth disease, according to a South Korean military official. “According to South Korean and U.S. intelligence, roads have been blocked by the military near Pyongyang to decrease movement of people,” said the official, who asked not to be named. The source said that quarantine measures are proving difficult for North Korea, which lacks preventive medicine such as vaccines and quicklime in which to bury contagious animals. Although the extremely contagious disease has only been detected in areas near North Korea’s capital of Pyongyang, the communist military is known to raise livestock in large numbers to feed its soldiers. The source said that North Koreans have been consuming infected pigs and cattle instead of culling them. FMD is known to be harmless to humans. South Korea has been battling the disease for weeks. This is the second time that North Korea has experienced an outbreak of the disease. The first outbreak was reported in 2007. At that time, officials from other countries and from the World Organization for Animal Health visited the country on a consultative mission and said there was a “limited danger” for severe outbreaks in the country. Roughly 4,000 animals were culled during that outbreak. It’s not yet known if the same aid will be given this year from international organizations. North and South Korea cooperated in 2007 against the outbreak, but frigid current relations may preclude that. Hatip Makato
