A/H5N1 flu outbreak in 2 Hoa Son, Hop Hoa (Liangshan), including one village of Hoa Son is old outbreak (happened at the end of 2006). These are two of the communes of concentrated poultry production areas of the province, as well as an area with many farms, family farms. According to statistics, poultry raising in Luong Son district's population is about 400,000 children. To ensure that the response to the epidemic, vaccination is expected to need 250,000 doses of vaccine in 10/18 communes and towns at risk of epidemic spread at a high level including the town of Liangshan Receive Trach, Cu Yen, Tan Vinh, high RAM, Son Lam Son Square, Lien, Hoa Son, Hop Hoa. However, to date, the province has not source translation vaccines.
Pham Vinh Xuong, Department of Deputy SDAH concern: This is major outbreaks, if no vaccine supply, can not against translation, stamping. In fact, the most difficult is the Department of Animal Health has written request of the provinces A/H5N1 flu initiative and control by the local budget. Department has advised, PPC proposals for funding support is still pending. In addition there are many ideas debated the validity of vaccines, as soon as the ministerial level also still confused about race in the treatment and control of avian influenza. Through testing, the virulence of A/H5N1 flu vaccine this time different from the disease in 2006. Therefore, the Department selected the solution to the situation is for the direction of injection of the vaccine Veterinary Department and the Regional Animal Health 1. Besides not being met by the power of vaccines and supplies anti-drug services such as disinfection, sterilization is also seriously lacking.At the time of the service, veterinary unit used all resources for priority areas. Now need 4,000 liters of chemical disinfection, worth more than $ 500 million.
In the implementation and control in Luong Son, together with the establishment of checkpoints, ban movement of poultry, the district is implementing measures to selective destruction, not the destruction of the whole. Ie in a radius of 1 km, choose selectively destroyed to avoid wasting budget that maintained the herd breeding areas. Expected, in this outbreak, the number of poultry destroyed about 20,000. If good translation that anti-poultry will reduce 30% of death. Poultry farms in the area are to comply with quarantine measures at the highest level, namely conducting banned camp, limited to organizations disinfection spray 4-6 times / days and apply a number of measures of care, nutrition, hygiene and disease prevention seriously.
The other notable issue is the prevention of bird flu in people almost failed because there is no vaccine. The reason is that if you know the source of vaccination, she could not know that vaccines have similar antigens. While some vaccines such as blue ear only two pathogenic strains should be the identification easier, there are more than 20 strains of influenza A disease should not know any similar vaccine antigens (immune).
Pham Vinh Xuong, Deputy Department of Animal Health said: A/H5N1 flu mutate constantly. Province adjacent to many local services such as Ninh Binh, Ha Nam, Kim Boi district special note of, Lac Thuy Yen Shui, Leshan, where the Ho Chi Minh Highway. To prevent disease, livestock farmers need to apply safe from grazing chickens, ducks, geese run free, periodic cleaning, disinfection around cages, monitoring poultry if there is object illness, death must be reported promptly destroy disease, not selling to prevent epidemic spread. http://www.baohoabinh.com.vn/12/73498/Huy_dong_cac_nguon_luc_ngan_chan_dich_cum_gia_cam.htm
