Bird Flu (H5N1) > Recent animal cases 28 outbreaks have been confirmed between 25 Jan. and 14 Feb. including 8 in the city of Bucharest. The effected number of poultry confirmed is thus far under 400. Affected poultry were in backyard flocks that may not have been included in vaccination campaigns. Origin of infection: the poultry may have come into contact with infected wild birds (pigeons or sparrows). In addition, three other outbreaks affected the Constanta region: - Outbreak in Vlahii: backyard premises with 69 hens and 7 geese; samples have been collected from 5 hens. - Outbreak in Ostrov: backyard premises with 27 hens; samples have been collected from 10 hens. - Outbreak in Mereni: a wild pigeon found dead near an irrigation canal, at a distance of 2 km from Mereni village. Control measures have begun to be applied in Vlahii village, in accordance with the legislative provisions in force; in addition to the usual control measures, culling of poultry is being performed. To date, 2,600 poultry have been culled in 110 backyard premises.

DEFINITION: Population with access to essential drugs 2000. The data on access to essential drugs are based on statistical estimates received from World Health Organization (WHO) country and regional offices and regional advisers and through the World Drug Situation Survey carried out in 1998-99. These estimates represent the best information available to the WHO Department of Essential Drugs and Medicines Policy to date and are currently being validated by WHO member states. The department assigns the estimates to four groupings: very low access (0-49%), low access (50-79%), medium access (80-94%) and good access (95-100%). These groupings, used here in presenting the data, are often employed by the WHO in interpreting the data, as the actual estimates may suggest a higher level of accuracy than the data afford. b.
