An editorial in Poultry World discusses a low pathogenic H3N1 avian influenza outbreak in Belgium that spread to more than 80 farms over four months. Because the virus was classed as low pathogenic, stamping-out compensation was not triggered until later, and the virus caused high mortality and egg production losses.
Losses of layer flocks in Europe reduce egg output and poultry demand for feed, while slow compensation rules may encourage hidden spread that prolongs supply disruption.
