The UK have issued this advice to poultry owners - https://www.gov.uk/government/news/new-measures-to-protect-poultry-against-avian-flu

At the GSPCA we are awaiting to hear on any local guidance from the Guernsey States Vet in the light of Avian Flu in Europe. 

The UK Government Chief Vet has declared a Prevention Zone introducing enhanced biosecurity requirements for poultry and captive birds, helping protect them from a strain of avian flu circulating in mainland Europe.

The zone covers England and will remain in place for 30 days. Keepers of poultry and other captive birds are now required to keep their birds indoors, or take appropriate steps to keep them separate from wild birds. Outbreaks of Highly Pathogenic Avian Influenza (H5N8) have been confirmed in poultry and wild birds in several countries across Europe.

No cases of H5N8 have been found in the UK and this order is a precautionary measure to help prevent potential infection from wild birds.

Public Health England (PHE) advises that the threat to human health remains very low.

Defra is continuing to monitor the situation closely and has increased its surveillance activity, while keepers are being urged to reinforce biosecurity measures on their premises.

The GSPCA are unaware of any concerns or cases locally and will update further when we have any additional information.
