| dc.description | H5N1 highly pathogenic avian influenza (HPAI) continues to be a major concern, including the risk of human infection. In six countries, the disease is entrenched in poultry populations (Bangladesh, the People's Republic of China, Egypt, Indonesia, Viet Nam and parts of India) and elimination remains a long-term goal. During 2010, other major animal diseases also continued to spread in different regions of the world, disrupting livestock production, rural economies and people's livelihoods and fo od security. This has been largely due to the limited capacity of veterinary services to prevent incursion of diseases of high impact or contain them, and to disease drivers such as poor production hygiene, high intensification of animal production, increased trade of animal and animal products and intensified contact between animal, human and wildlife populations.FAO's HPAI Global Programme addresses the continuing threats from HPAI, and other high-impact animal diseases, through an app roach which is moving away from disease specific interventions to a more integrated, multidiscilinary focus on developing sustainable animal health systems at country, regional and global levels. The approach builds upon lessons learned from the responses to H5N1 HPAI and applies them to other transboundary animal and emerging infectious diseases . FAO has been working towards this approach, including with its new Animal Health Strategic Action Plan (2011-2015) in line with the 'One Health' agen da. | |
