Bird flu watch in Jharkhand. Bird flu, also known as avian influenza, has been a growing concern in recent years due to its potential impact on both animal and human health. The Jharkhand state government has been urged to monitor and take action against the spread of bird flu following reports of an outbreak in neighboring states.
The Central government has issued a warning to Jharkhand officials, urging them to take measures to prevent the spread of the virus to their state. The state government has been advised to maintain strict surveillance and monitoring of poultry farms, bird markets, and wild bird habitats to detect any signs of the virus.
Officials have been directed to carry out regular testing of birds and poultry for the virus and to take immediate action if any cases are detected. This includes culling infected birds, disinfecting affected areas, and imposing strict restrictions on the movement of birds and poultry products.
The recent outbreak of bird flu has caused widespread concern among farmers and consumers in neighboring states. The virus can be transmitted to humans through contact with infected birds or their droppings, and has the potential to cause serious illness or even death.
As a result, the state government has been advised to take all necessary precautions to prevent the spread of the virus and protect the health and wellbeing of the people of Jharkhand.
