- Bird flu: H5N1 virus in Brazil wild birds prompts animal health emergency
- Brazil – the world’s biggest chicken meat exporter with US$9.7bn in sales in 2022 – has so far confirmed eight cases of the H5N1 in wild birds, including seven in Espirito Santo state and one in Rio de Janeiro state.
- The agriculture ministry said on Monday that it had created an emergency operations center to coordinate, plan and evaluate “national actions related to avian influenza.”
- H5N1 infection in wild birds does not trigger trade bans, based on guidelines of the World Organization for Animal Health. However, a case of bird flu on a farm usually results in the entire flock being killed and can trigger trade restrictions from importing countries.
