Avian flu disease has reached new countries worldwide and is considered endemic for the first time because some wild birds transmit the virus to poultry.
Reuters has informed that after speaking with more than 20 experts and farmers from four continents, the virus prevalence in the wild signals that record outbreaks will not abate soon on poultry farms, ramping up threats to the world’s food supply.
They warned that farmers must view the disease as a serious risk all year instead of focusing prevention efforts during spring migration seasons for wild birds.
As has been seen, the avian flu is present in North and South America, Europe, Asia, and Africa, undefeated by summer heat or winter cold snaps, since a strain arrived in the United States in early 2022 that was genetically similar to cases in Europe and Asia.
On Wednesday, Argentina and Uruguay each declared national sanitary emergencies after officials confirmed the countries’ first infections. Argentina found the virus in wild birds, while dead swans in Uruguay tested positive.
