Abstract

Bird flu or avian influenza is a zoonotic disease that can be transmitted from migratory and wild birds to poultry birds and rarely also poultry birds to man. The disease is only rarely contagious to man from birds but can lead to very high mortality in humans. Hence there is need of constant control and monitoring activities by district, state and central authorities with active participation of the animal husbandry section. The central team deputed in a city in Eastern India actively monitored the control activities. The article emphasizes the actions and observations by such a central team in an Avian Influenza- affected area in a state in Eastern India.
