9 Surveillance programme for AI in poultry Passive: Farmers MUST check the health of animals every day - Notify specific clinical signs of AI to the DVFA - Notify an early warning to the DVFA Active: EU coordinated surveillance (since 2003) - Risk based sampling in different species in the commercial production (since 2006) 9

10 Active surveillance for AI risk based Commercial flocks >100 birds Breeder flocks - all species (1/year) Pullets (before release to egg-production) Outdoor layers (4/year) Outdoor slaughter poultry (before slaughter) Turkeys (before slaughter) Game birds breeders and off spring (4/season Feb Aug) AI certificate for trade of live poultry and game birds

11 Suspicion of avian influenza A holdings under suspicion is placed under official restrictions The holding is investigated and samples for virological examination is collected Movement restrictions is imposed on the farm and on contact farms until the suspicion is ruled out 9 Notifications of suspected AI/ND in 2015

12 AI - Early warning EU regulation The farmer has to contact the DVFA when: Drop in feed and water intake by more than 20% within 24 hours Drop in egg production by more than 5% for more than two consecutive days Increased mortality of 3% above normal levels in 3 days Samples collected and tested by PCR Samples also tested for Newcastle disease No restrictions on the holding during testing In total 13 early warnings in DK in

14 Surveillance programme for AI in wild birds EU coordinated passive and active surveillance EU coordinated passive surveillance from 2011 (ongoing) Surveillance of sick or dead wild birds for HPAI National active surveillance from 2011 (ongoing) Surveillance of live wild birds for LPAI (species with higher risk 900 birds in 2016)

15 Newcastle disease vaccination Since autumn 2004 compulsory vaccination in: Hens breeding and layer flocks Turkeys - breeding and layer flocks Free range broilers or slaughtered older than ten weeks Poultry brought to gatherings, exhibition and markets Wintering game birds for breeding Vaccination status checks by serology in commercial sector (blood samples or eggs)

16 Outlook Poultry products as a food source is on the increase..
