The disease was detected in a mulard duck flock of 5,000 animals in Kiskunfélegyháza, Bács-Kiskun County. The presence of the disease was noted by the appearance of nervous system symptoms, a decrease in water consumption, and a slightly higher than usual mortality rate. The authority designated a 3-kilometer protective zone and an extended observation zone around the affected flock. The herd is being eradicated.

Preventing the emergence and spread of the disease is crucial for the entire poultry sector

It is essential to fully comply with disease control measures on livestock farms, to prevent cross-infection from wild birds, to be vigilant among livestock keepers and veterinarians, and to send samples quickly in case of suspicion and to follow the usual protocols
