Epidemiological outbreak investigations were conducted in highly pathogenic avian influenza virus of the subtype H5N8 (HPAIV H5N8)-affected poultry holdings and a zoo to identify potential routes of entry of the pathogen via water, feedstuffs, animals, people, bedding material, other fomites (equipment, vehicles etc.) and the presence of wild birds near affected holdings. Indirect introduction of HPAIV H5N8 via material contaminated by infected wild bird seems the most reasonable explanation for the observed outbreak series in three commercial holdings in Mecklenburg-Western Pomerania and Lower Saxony, while direct contact to infected wild birds may have led to outbreaks in a zoo in Rostock and in two small free-range holdings in Anklam, Mecklenburg-Western Pomerania.
针对受H5N8亚型高致病性禽流感病毒（HPAIV H5N8）影响的家禽养殖场和一家动物园开展了流行病学暴发调查，以确定病原体通过水、饲料、动物、人员、垫料、其他污染物（设备、车辆等）进入的潜在途径，以及受影响养殖场附近野生鸟类的存在情况。通过受感染野生鸟类污染的材料间接引入HPAIV H5N8，似乎是梅克伦堡-前波美拉尼亚州和下萨克森州三个商业养殖场暴发疫情的最合理原因，而与受感染野生鸟类的直接接触可能导致了罗斯托克一家动物园以及梅克伦堡-前波美拉尼亚州安克拉姆的两个小型散养场暴发疫情。
