This event arose as part of the surveillance and monitoring of animal health events, carried out by the Agency's technicians. The affected farm corresponds to a commercial layer farm, where unusual mortality was detected and intervention zones have been defined in the focal, perifocal and surveillance areas, accompanied by sampling of farms and application of containment measures. Passive surveillance has been strengthened in order to detect new outbreaks. According to the monitoring, there is a body of water close to the farm where wild ducks arrive. H5N1 has been identified. According to the sanitary measures established for the control of Highly Pathogenic Avian Influenza - HPAI, in the intervention zones (perifocal zone), being part of the active surveillance established, a new outbreak was detected belonging to a laying hen farm, with epidemiological link to adjacent sheds, belonging to two owners, with a close epidemiological link. Control measures (culling and disposal) have been completed within this epidemiological unit.
