| dc.description | Highly Pathogenic Avian Influenza (HPAI) type H5N1 continues to spread in Asia. In addition to the 10 countries affected in the South East Asia (2003 - 2004), India, Pakistan, Myanmar and Afghanistan were newly affected by new outbreaks of HPAI in 2006 in poultry and wild birds. More than 200 million birds were culled as a consequence of HPAI outbreaks in Asia with enormous impact for food security and people’s livelihoods, poultry farms with unproductive “downtime” after outbreaks which have re sulted in negative effects in poultry farms, backyard poultry farms and on international trade of live poultry and poultry products. Public health issues and contact with HPAI H5N1 contaminated environments remain a concern. | |
