THE SOUTHWEST AGAIN HIT BY BIRD FLU

18,000 ducks were slaughtered on Friday in the Tarn. The virus has spread to "around three departments," according to the prefect of the Tarn.

" All the animals were slaughtered or 18,000 " in total, in two separate farms in the town of Almayrac, said the prefect of the Tarn, Jean-Michel Mougard, at a press conference. A case was also detected in the Hautes-Pyrénées, in the prefecture of this department.

" We see some viral growth ", particularly in the Gers, the Hautes-Pyrénées and Lot-et-Garonne, said the prefect of the Tarn. " There are suspected, samples are underway ," he said.

"Indeed, a day before the findings of the first dead duck in the second breeding Almayrac, a convoy left with ducks to these departments," said the Prefect.

"EXTREMELY DANGEROUS VIRUS"

"The goal is to absolutely stop the spread of the virus. Other animals may be euthanized, including preventively if there is suspicion . For now, we freeze movement and proceed to use disinfection. animals must be confined in farms rigorously because we perceive a certain viral progression, "he said.

"This pathogen virus is extremely dangerous because mortality intervenes quickly. This is the first time that we see this degree of virulence . Breeders will be a census to be compensated by mid-January," said the prefect of the Tarn.

RESTRICTION OF EXPORTS

According to the Ministry of Agriculture, who confirmed the information Friday morning, the virus was transmitted by migratory birds . A 3 km protection zone and a 10km surveillance zone have been established around the farm.

This new case of bird flu will impact all foie gras producers. Indeed, France will not export its production outside Europe.
