Deaths of wild fowl continue to occur, although less intensively. In Russia, we intend to keep the current situation within the existing framework, and will try to reduce the affected area through culling all domestic birds until wild fowl leave the country.
We monitor the situation and we have not discovered any unconventional respiratory diseases in humans suggesting bird flu infection. Monitoring is underway in all districts of southern Russia. Luckily, no confirmed bird flu cases in humans have been reported.
We need the situation in the approaches to our borders to be monitored.
