Several cases
Avian influenza spreads in Burgenland
The whole of Burgenland is now an "area with a greatly increased risk of avian influenza". What this means for the keeping of farm birds.
Due to the increased occurrence of avian influenza cases in recent days, the situation in Austria has been reassessed. Among other things, the whole of Burgenland has been designated as an "area with a greatly increased risk of poultry plague" since Tuesday.
Closed facilities necessary
This means that poultry and birds must be kept permanently in stables or at least in closed facilities that are at least covered at the top to prevent contact with wild birds and their droppings and to prevent contact with wild waterfowl.
Contact must be excluded
This does not apply to businesses or households where fewer than 50 birds or only pets are kept in closed rooms and without direct or indirect contact with other birds. Further exception: If ducks and geese are kept in such a way that direct and indirect contact with other birds is excluded - for example by using nets.
