The deadly strain of avian influenza, or bird flue, has claimed nearly 100 lives in Asia and has migrated into parts of Africa, the Middle East and Europe.

Rapid elimination of the H5N1 virus among infected birds and other animals is essential to preventing a major outbreak.
The World Health Organization (WHO) recommends that infected flocks of chickens and other birds be killed in order to help prevent further and reduce possibility of human infection.
However, strict safety measures must be taken to prevent exposure of the virus among workers involved in culling.
"Haryana State is free from Bird Flu. However, keeping in view the spreading of the disease very fast across the world, adequate measures have been initiated. The department has organized conferences on Avian Influenza at all the four divisional headquarters on dated 4/8/06 & 9/8/06. Senior officers from the district administration, Animal Husbandry & Dairying Department, and other line departments like Forest, Health, PWD (B&R), Public Health, Local Bodies etc. & Poultry breeders of concerned districts participated in these conferences.
