The Dutch bird flu can be transmitted from animals to humans
A strain of bird flu which can be transmitted to humans has been detected on a farm south of Amsterdam, prompting Dutch authorities to ban the transport of all poultry in the country.
Officials said they were in the process of slaughtering all 150,000 birds at the battery poultry farm in Hekendorp where the strain was identified on Saturday.
“This highly pathogenic variant of avian influenza is very dangerous for bird life,” the government said in a statement. “The disease can be transmitted from animals to humans.” (MTI, hirado.hu)
