Descripción
This guide has been developed to ensure that adequateinformation is available for poultry smallholders inSouth East Asia for them to better prevent and controlAvian Flu.The information is specifically intended to backyard andsmall-scale poultry production units. The guide thereforeemphasizes on simple and inexpensive measures fordisease prevention and control.However, this guide cannot be made available to themillions of poultry smallholders. It has therefore beendecided to combine in this guide both information forpoultry owners and information for veterinaryparaprofessionals (“paravets”), and to distribute thisguide to the 50,000 vietnamese paravets, since theyrepresent the major provider of animal health service tolivestock smallholders, and therefore can better spreadthe message to poultry smallholders.Ideally this guide should be distributed by the staff of theDistrict Veterinary Station (DVS) during a meetinggathering all paravets from the villages / communes ofthe district. This meeting should be the occasion todiscuss the contents of the guide, so that when Avian Fluis suspected in the district or nearby, both paravets andDVS have already discussed the issues.
