Wirksamkeit der Überwachungs-, Vorbeugungs- und Bekämpfungs-Strategien der Vogelgrippe in der Schweiz

Description: Das Projekt "Wirksamkeit der Überwachungs-, Vorbeugungs- und Bekämpfungs-Strategien der Vogelgrippe in der Schweiz" wird vom Umweltbundesamt gefördert und von Bundesamt für Lebensmittelsicherheit und Veterinärwesen BLV durchgeführt. The spread of highly pathogenic avian influenza (HPAI) is a global threat to all countries with a poultry industry, semi-commercial production and backyard poultry and has already caused enormous economic losses. Since 1997, H5N1 viruses which have infected humans have included Haemagglutinins from several clades and variable genotypes. Therefore, all HPAI H5N1 viruses must be considered a potential threat to public health. This increases the scope of viruses with pandemic potential and the importance of continued surveillance of H5N1 avian influenza outbreaks. WHO and the OIE are urging countries worldwide to initiate surveillance programmes tailored to an early detection of cases of HPAI. There is an international demand to reduce random sampling and redirect the scarce resources to a targeted sampling, which focuses on the high-risk population, which is even more true for developing countries e.g. in Africa, which are almost devoid of surveillance capacity. In these cases, risk-based surveillance, and aiming at the most probable source of disease to save scarce resources are even more justified. This project aims: 1) To develop a statistical risk based framework for the combined analysis of surveillance data on avian influenza virus originating from various sources. 2) To develop a model for the assessment and optimisation of the effectiveness of different surveillance strategies for avian influenza. 3) To develop models to assess the effectiveness of different control strategies to prevent infection and spread of HPAI in commercial poultry. The approach is based on the Swiss Tropical Institute's competence in Bayesian spatial risk analyses, transmission modelling of vector borne and zoonotic diseases and its international network in Africa and Asia. This project will focus on Switzerland but within the global context of transport, trade and wild bird migration. It will collaborate with all involved institutions in Switzerland dealing with domestic poultry and wild birds. Expected results and innovations are: 1. Risk maps and contributions to risk maps for LPAI and HPAI on wild and domestic birds in Switzerland. 2. Decision tree for AI risk based surveillance in Switzerland applicable also to low income countries. 3. Risk based surveillance map and sampling plan for AI in Switzerland. 4. Performance indicators of surveillance sensitivity and cost-effectiveness of surveillance of AI in Switzerland and 5. A transmission model of HPAI adapted to Switzerland capable to simulate different intervention strategies.
