They detect a case of avian flu in Lasarte-Oria, a yellow seagull
The City Council recommends "avoiding contact with dead or sick birds, their excrement or secretions".
In recent weeks, the Department of Food, Rural Development, Agriculture and Fisheries of the Basque Government has confirmed several sources of avian influenza. The latest case has been detected in Lasarte-Oria.
Lasarte-Oria City Council has asked in a note not to touch sick or dead birds and to call 112 in the event of a collision with any of them.
A yellow seagull infected with the disease has been detected in Lasarte-Oria as part of a routine follow-up by the authorities.
Although it has not demonstrated the ability to transmit the strains of the disease among humans, the Basque Government maintains monitoring of the matter. In this regard, the Municipality of Lasarte-Oria recommends not to have direct contact with dead or sick birds or their excrement and secretions.
In addition, the City Council has stressed the importance of not feeding wild animals, whether pigeons, seagulls or cats, and has called for citizen cooperation.
Leaving food on the street causes animals to be brought closer together, which has been highlighted by the City Council as increasing the risk of disease transmission.
