Avian influenza, listed by the World Organization for Animal Health (OIE), has become a disease of great importance for animal and human health. Several aspects of the disease lack scientific information, which has hampered the management of some recent crises. Millions of animals have died, and concern is growing over the loss of human lives and management of the pandemic potential. On the basis of data generated in recent outbreaks and in light of new OIE regulations and maintenance of animal welfare, we review the available control methods for avian influenza infections in poultry, from stamping out to prevention through emergency and prophylactic vaccination.
世界动物卫生组织(OIE)列出的禽流感,已成为对动物和人类健康极为重要的一种疾病。该疾病的几个方面缺乏科学信息,这阻碍了对近期一些危机的管理。数以百万计的动物死亡,人们对人类生命损失以及大流行可能性的管理愈发担忧。基于近期疫情爆发所产生的数据,并根据OIE的新规定以及动物福利的维护,我们回顾了家禽禽流感感染的现有控制方法,从扑杀到通过紧急和预防性疫苗接种进行预防。
