Fears of Bird Flu Spreading from Tulkarem


Officials in the Civil Administration have recently learned of an outbreak of bird flu in PA villages in the Tulkarem district, and to the dismay of Israeli officials, the birds are not being destroyed as they should. As a result, it is now feared that the illness, which is very serious, has made its way over the Green Line into ‘Israel proper”.

Veterinary officials in Beit Dagan have received samples from infected areas confirming the reports, that bird flu, the HSN1 virus has infected chickens in the PA areas but it appears PA officials are unable or unwilling to take the necessary actions to ensure the infected birds are destroyed.
