Avian influenza (bird flu)
Avian influenza, also known as bird flu, is a viral disease that can be highly pathogenic in birds. Highly pathogenic avian influenza is a serious threat to birds that can have economic consequences for poultry farmers across the world, including in the European Union (EU). Although the public health risk is low, the European Medicines Agency (EMA) works with public health authorities in the EU and worldwide to monitor the risk and prepare to respond to a potential public health emergency.
