France has launched a tender for 80 million doses of bird flu vaccines in order to be ready to start its vaccination programme in the autumn, it said on Thursday, the first member of the European Union to start such a scheme.
The announcement came after French health and safety agency ANSES earlier on Thursday endorsed the government's plan to vaccinate millions of poultry birds against bird flu, setting out three scenarios for the campaign.
Ducks are very receptive to the virus and remain asymptomatic for many days, increasing the risk of transmission. ANSES, which the ministry had tasked with presenting a range of vaccination strategies, reported back with three scenarios on Thursday. A second option to be applied simultaneously or at a later stage, adds foie gras ducks, free-range turkeys and ducks and future free-range layer pullets; and a third all layer hens and web-footed poultry not already covered elsewhere.
