Food Safety Alert: Avian Influenza Detected in Slaughter Geese
Date: November 18, 2025
The State Veterinary Inspection has reported an outbreak of Avian Influenza and its subtypes in slaughter geese originating from Poland. This incident raises significant concerns regarding food safety, particularly for consumers and businesses involved in the poultry industry.
Avian Influenza, commonly referred to as bird flu, is a viral infection that can affect various bird species, including domestic geese. The presence of this virus in slaughter geese poses a risk of bio-contamination, which can lead to severe health implications for consumers if the affected products are not properly handled or cooked.
It is crucial for all stakeholders in the food supply chain, including producers, processors, and retailers, to remain vigilant and adhere to stringent food safety practices. This includes monitoring for any signs of illness in poultry, implementing biosecurity measures, and ensuring that all poultry products are thoroughly cooked to safe temperatures before consumption.
Consumers are advised to stay informed about the situation and to purchase poultry products from reputable sources. Proper cooking and handling of all poultry products can significantly reduce the risk of transmission of Avian Influenza and ensure food safety.
For further updates and guidance, it is recommended to follow announcements from health and food safety authorities.
