The European Commission is preparing to adopt emergency measures to curb the spread of bird flu in Poland’s Masovian and Greater Poland regions, where 73 outbreaks have occurred in two months. These steps aim to protect public health and the poultry industry amid growing concerns.
The European Commission is set to adopt emergency measures next week to combat the spread of bird flu in Poland, particularly in the Masovian and Greater Poland regions. Over the past two months, Poland has reported 73 confirmed outbreaks of Highly Pathogenic Avian Influenza (HPAI), with the majority occurring in these two regions.
In response to the large-scale outbreaks, the European Commission is prioritising the implementation of additional prevention and control measures to contain the virus. These measures are expected to be formally adopted next week, aiming to safeguard both public health and the Polish poultry industry. The measures have already been discussed and agreed upon with national and regional authorities.
While there has been speculation about the potential for a poultry export ban from Poland due to the bird flu, Polish Agriculture Minister Czeslaw Siekierski has said that it is “too early” to discuss such a possibility. The Commission's plans also seek to strengthen ongoing prevention efforts to mitigate the impact on the poultry sector.
The situation remains closely monitored as authorities work to limit the spread of the virus.
