(1) The threat to human health from "bird flu" (influenza virus type A/H5N1) is currently very low but not zero. (2) "Bird flu" is an influenza virus found in birds. It is only people who have close contact with infected birds or with their droppings and other body fluids (e.g. blood, guts) from infected birds that are at risk from bird flu. There is no evidence of any sustained human-to human transmission. (3) Though for most people the risk of catching "bird flu" from birds is close to zero, following a few simple precautions can minimise the risk to you and your family still further If you see dead or sick birds, do not touch them Warn your children against touching dead or sick birds and discourage them from playing with birds Wash your hands thoroughly with soap many times per day, especially before eating (4) People in certain higher risk groups may need to take additional precautions. People who work on poultry farms See ECDC guidelines on protection of poultry workers: http://www.ecdc.eu.int/avian_influenza/occupational_exposure.php People who keep domestic birds (chickens, ducks or geese near where they live) Protecting your birds against avian influenza - Ask the Food and Veterinary Regulatory Division for advice on the level of risk in your area, and on the measures they suggest to minimise the possibility of your birds being infected[1]. [1] European Commission Decision 2005/734/EC obliges Member State veterinary authorities to put in place measures to minimize the risk of wild birds passing H5N1 avian influenza to domestic birds. These have to be based on an assessment of the risk in different areas of their country. Protecting yourself and your family - Do not allow your birds into the house. - Discourage children from playing with the birds. Forbid children from touching sick or dead birds. Teach them to tell adults quickly if birds are sick. - Make sure that children always wash their hands before eating. - If you notice sick or dead birds in your flock do not touch the birds yourself. - If it is not possible for the veterinary service to come quickly, and you have to take care of sick birds yourself put on protective clothing: o a gown or apron covering your body a hat covering your hair o a mask or wet cloth over your mouth and nose o goggles or glasses o gloves o boots - If you need to dispose of a dead bird use gloves and a mask, bury it in a place which does not pose a risk to drinking water wells and other water sources. - Once you have finished having contact with sick or dead birds take off the clothes you were wearing, hat, goggles and mask/cloth last, and clean them using a disinfectant. Wash your hands thoroughly before you touch anything else. - Humans get infected from sick birds, their droppings, or other fluids and secretions (e.g. blood, guts, feathers). Cages, shed equipment or places where infected birds have been kept can be a source of infection for several days. - Use acidic disinfectants such as peroxide acid (here the Member State may wish to insert a brand name), blend of organic acids (brand name?), glutaraldehyde (brand name?) and iodine compounds to disinfect cages, cloths or equipments that has been in contact with infected birds. If these are not available use bleach. - Do not eat sick birds or birds that have died from disease even if they are cooked and do not feed them to other animals or birds. - Meat and eggs from healthy birds are safe provided you cook it thoroughly. - If there have been sick birds in your flock, and someone in the family becomes ill with fever, cough or a sore throat, contact a doctor immediately and let them know what has happened. -----Original Message----- From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: Friday, 10 March 2006 2:28 PM To: Priyadi Prihaswan Subject: RE: Avian Flu Heeh ...
