Over the weekend we saw reports of avian H5 reported in the Rostov region of Russia, along with reports of HPAI H5N8 Detected In Wild Duck Near NL Border, to which we can add the following OIE notification of two outbreaks of HPAI H5 in Bulgaria.
One outbreak is reported from a farm in Stefanovo in the northeastern region of Dobric, while the other is reported in a backyard in Uzundzhovo. No word yet on the full subtype.
As this is the time of the year we would expect the arrival of migratory birds carrying H5N8 (or possibly other reassorted HPAI H5 viruses), any uptick in reports is worth noting.
