| dc.description | Estimates of global HPAI loss from the outbreaks since 2003 run into billions1. The cost of the 1997 outbreak in Hong Kong, it is suggested, may have been US$100s of millions including knock on effects, but the very strict control measures applied may have prevented large scale human infection. In spite of this, the global poultry sector is dynamic and resilient. Global production and trade have shown the potential to recover quickly from severe outbreaks that until recently were confine d mainly to East and South East Asia. Why, then, is this disease the focus of so much attention, when other major transboundary animal diseases (classical swine fever, even foot and mouth disease) and other important diseases of poultry (Newcastle disease) cause much less interest.? | |
