"FAO" warns against an increase in "disturbing" in bird flu injuries

The United Nations Food and Agriculture Organization on Thursday requested that an urgent and united response to ‘worrying’ in cases of bird flu between humans and animals in all Asia and the Pacific are. She said in a statement that the H5.N1 virus had spread extensively as ever, and reached South America and Antarctica, and hit new types of wild and homes. “We have noticed an increase in cases of human injuries and the spread of the virus to new types of animals,” says Kachin and Ngasathaburnshai, regional director of the Emergency Center for the Food and Agriculture Organization. He added that “the rise of new tribes AH5.N1 is most clear, increases the possibility of an epidemic … to take immediate preventative measures is needed.” Since the end of 2023, the United Nations agency has strengthened 13 new human injuries reported in Cambodia, with additional cases in China and Vietnam. The Philippines and Indonesia put strict measures due to their environmental variety, with insufficient procedures to prevent disease, while India, Nepal and Bangladesh are also the spread of the disease. The organization has urged a number of countries to work together with the aim of implementing comprehensive monitoring systems, including determining the entire genome sequence to detect the distribution and development of the virus. Bird flu is the first description of bird flu in Northern Italy in 1878, when it was defined as an infectious disease affecting poultry, is associated with a high rate of bird deaths, and farmers called this disease ‘bird pest’, and in the fifties of the last century, scientists studied to understand the structure and behavior. The scientists divided the bird flu into two categories; Bird flu is many diseases, a low -case bird flu, and the first category is characterized by its danger, its effect on poultry and potential risks on humans. The highly pathogenic bird flu, which often occurs due to certain subtypes of H5 and H7 virus, leads to serious diseases, high mortality rates in household poultry, with symptoms that include shortness of breath, nerve signs and rapid death, which require a collective performance of poultry, to control and reduce economic losses. Certain tribes such as H5N1 and H7N9 can also affect people, causing serious illnesses and sometimes death, which poses great risks to public health. By contrast; Low -snykbird flu causes mild symptoms, or does not occur in birds at all, although it can affect productivity. It is also less dangerous for human health compared to the first category, and it usually causes mild respiratory symptoms.
