泰国对禽流感疫情保持警惕

       据亚洲农业商情网站消息，自荷兰发生H5N8禽流感疫情以来，泰国卫生部对禽流感疫情保持高度警惕，强化了监控措施。荷兰禽流感疫情已导致15万只鸡被宰杀。

    泰国官员表示，泰国近来天气转凉，冬季候鸟迁徙会加大禽流感风险。监控的关键地区位于越南与老挝、柬埔寨、缅甸的交界处。泰国自2006年以来尚未出现禽流感疫情。

    Thailand's Ministry of Public Health has strengthened surveillance measures against the bird flu following reports about the latest outbreak of H5N8 in Netherland which led to the culling of 150,000 chickens. Permanent Secretary Narong Sahametapat said that current cooler weather in Thailand and movement of migratory birds in winter would raise the risk of disease spread. “The most important areas for surveillance are along the borders with Laos, Cambodia and Myanmar,” Dr Narong said. Thailand has remained bird flu-free since 2006.
