18.01.2022 #BREAKING The bird flu situation in country Victoria has worsened Avian influenza has been confirmed at an additional egg farm in the Golden Plains Shire, an...d also an emu farm near Kerang. Victoria’s Chief Veterinary Officer Dr Graeme Cooke said Agriculture Victoria was acting swiftly to contain the outbreaks. The Golden Plains egg farm has been placed under quarantine after being confirmed as having high pathogenic H7N7 avian influenza. "It has about 37,000 birds on site within the existing Restricted Area. The new detection requires a small revision to the existing Restricted Area, Golden Plains Shire, but the Control Area remains the same size spanning the Golden Plains Shire. The emu farm near Kerang reported sick birds to Agriculture Victoria and subsequent testing has confirmed low pathogenic H7N6 avian influenza. This is a different strain of avian influenza than is currently impacting poultry farms in Golden Plains Shire and is not linked to previous cases of avian influenza. The property has about 8000 farmed emus and is under quarantine - a Restricted Area 2 km and a Control Area 5 km is now in place around the farm. Thank you to the property owners who notified us quickly when they noticed sick birds, Dr Cooke said.
