HPAI Update

Highly Pathogenic Avian Influenza has reshaped how the global poultry sector thinks about risk.
What was once considered an emergency response is now a permanent operating reality: Biosecurity is the new normal.

The World Organisation for Animal Health emphasizes that biosecurity, surveillance and early detection are the most effective tools to reduce the risk and impact of avian influenza.

Across the poultry value chain, biosecurity has become a continuous commitment:
🔎 Enhanced surveillance and monitoring
🚜 Strong farm-level biosecurity practices
🧪 Investment in diagnostics and vaccination strategies
🤝 Close cooperation between industry and Veterinary Services

Sustained vigilance is essential to protect animal health, food security and the livelihoods of millions of people who depend on poultry production worldwide.

IPC supports science-based biosecurity, transparent reporting and robust surveillance systems worldwide.
Strengthening prevention and preparedness across all regions is essential to reduce risk, support safe trade and protect the global food supply.

To support preparedness efforts, IPC has developed a practical Avian Influenza Preparedness Plan one-pager for the global poultry value chain.
