niman Posted December 9, 2022 Author Report Share Posted December 9, 2022 Submitted by jeanete.franco on Thu, 08/12/2022 - 19:59 The Agricultural and Livestock Service (SAG) reports that, after analysis by its specialized laboratory, the presence of highly pathogenic avian influenza of the H5N1 variant was confirmed today, in a pelican from the Iquique region and another from Antofagasta, cases that are added to the positive reported yesterday in the region of Arica and Parinacota. It should be noted that the cases to date are limited only to wild birds, without affecting poultry so far. The SAG reaffirms the call to the public not to touch or handle sick or dead birds and to report their presence. It should be noted that these findings do not affect the consumption of birds, and since they are wild specimens, nor do they affect international trade. Faced with the complex scenario that was being evidenced as a result of this disease in the continent, the SAG established close public-private work to mitigate eventual negative effects on the productive matrix of the poultry industry, which is not affected for the moment, in addition to establishing an important coordination with all the actors of the poultry production chain so that they increase biosecurity measures.
