Concerned poultry keepers in Wales are calling on the Welsh government to provide access to a bird flu vaccine to mitigate the risk of future outbreaks.
The situation is critical, as avian flu continues to wreak havoc on poultry populations worldwide. The virus, which affects both poultry and wild birds, has led to the culling of millions of birds in an attempt to contain its spread.
Poultry keepers argue that a vaccine is essential to protect their flocks from the highly contagious virus. The potential vaccine triggers a rapid immune response in chickens, shielding them from symptoms of the disease. This not only safeguards the health of the poultry but also helps prevent the spread of the virus to other birds.
