March 29, 20224 yr comment_55608 On March 28, 2022, the Canadian Food Inspection Agency (CFIA) confirmed the presence of highly pathogenic avian influenza (AI), subtype H5N1, in a second flock of poultry in southern Ontario . As a precautionary measure, the CFIA has quarantined the premises and established movement control measures, and recommends increased biosecurity for other farms in this region. AI is spreading in wild bird populations around the world and is of significant national concern as birds migrate into Canada. The CFIA continues to remind anyone with poultry, or other susceptible birds, to practice good biosecurity habits to protect them from infectious animal diseases. https://inspection.canada.ca/sante-des-animaux/animaux-terrestres/maladies/declaration-obligatoire/influenza-aviaire/detection-d-influenza-aviaire-hautement-pathogene-/fra/1640207916497/1640207916934 Edited April 10, 20224 yr by niman Report

March 30, 20224 yr Author comment_55748 Commercial 4 week old broiler turkeys (ON-IP2). On March 26th, 2022, the CFIA was notified of a high mortality in a second commercial turkey farm in Southern Ontario. The CFIA National Centre for Foreign Animal Disease has confirmed that the virus was H5N1 consistent with other Eurasian Gs/GD lineage HPAI H5N1 viruses belonging to 2.3.4.4B clade circulating in the Atlantic provinces of Canada, USA and Europe Both viruses have HA cleavage site motif “PLREKRRK/GLF” consistent with highly pathogenic avian influenza strains of H5 subtype. The different genomic sequencing suggests distinct introductions. https://wahis.oie.int/#/report-info?reportId=51318 Edited March 30, 20224 yr by niman Report
