The ABPA claims the decision taken by the Japanese authorities is not in line with the guidelines of the World Organization for Animal Health (WOAH), which indicates suspension of trade only with cases reported in commercial production.<\/p>\n<p>Despite the measure, Japan does not import poultry from Esp\u00edrito Santo. The state also does not have a significant share in poultry exports from Brazil and accounted for only 0.19% of the total in 2022.<\/p>\n<p>The outbreak in Esp\u00edrito Santo was the first occurrence of the bird flu virus in domestic birds in Brazil since the disease was detected in the country on May 15, only in wild birds and outside commercial production. \u201cIt is important to emphasize the confirmed cases in subsistence poultry do not imply restrictions to the international trade of Brazilian poultry. Consumption and export of poultry products remain safe,\u201d the Brazilian Ministry of Agriculture and Livestock stated.<\/p>\n<p>According to the national authorities, sanitary measures are already being applied to contain and eradicate the outbreak. In addition, surveillance actions are being intensified in populations of domestic birds in the region surrounding the case. The Brazilian Ministry of Agriculture reported depending on the evolution of the investigations and the epidemiological scenario, new measures could be adopted to prevent the spread of the virus and protect the national poultry industry.<\/p>\n<p>A total of 50 outbreaks of HPAI A H5N1 in wild birds were recorded in Brazil. The ABPA reinforced, through its note, that, regardless of the reports, there is no risk of transmission of the disease through the consumption of products, information that the WHO, WOAH, and other human and animal health authorities support.<\/p>\n<p><em>Opening picture is merely illustrative.<\/em><\/p>\n<p><strong>*With information from Ag\u00eancia Brasil<\/strong><\/p>\n<p><strong>Translated by El\u00fasio Brasileiro<\/strong><\/p>\n<div class=\"credits-overlay\" data-target=\".wp-image-331882\">\u00a9Syed Mahamudur Rahman\/NurPhoto\/AFP<\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>The Brazilian Association of Animal Protein released a note regretting Japan\u2019s decision to suspend purchases of poultry from the state of Esp\u00edrito Santo, where avian influenza was detected in a backyard plant.
