Two cases were detected in wild birds and should not trigger a ban on imports of Brazilian poultry products as per guidelines from the World Organization for Animal Health, Brazil's government says.
Brazil, the world’s top chicken exporter, has for the first time confirmed Highly Pathogenic Avian Influenza cases but only in wild birds, the Agriculture Ministry said on Monday, May 15.
The Brazilian government confirmed the detection of H5N1 subtype of the influenza virus in two marine birds, of the Thalasseus acuflavidus species, on the coast of Brazil’s southeastern state of Espirito Santo. The agriculture ministry said that because the cases were detected in wild animals, Brazil’s status “as a country free of HPAI” was not affected.
BRF’s Gularte also noted the company relies on Brazil’s “robust” animal health services to prevent and contain any potential threats to industrial poultry farms. Brazil’s neighbor Argentina suspended its poultry exports in late February after recording the first case of bird flu in its poultry industry in southern Rio Negro province but resumed exports from bird flu free areas in late March.
