The bird flu reapperance

The bird flu reapperance yesterday at Ikorodu area, Lagos state shows that our farmers are not doing enough as regards ensuring the cleanliness of their poultry sites thereby not conforming to many of the awareness being created through several trainings and sensitization programmes of the government since the source of this zoonotic is majorly dirt which constant cleaning of the poultry environment can checkmate.

Farmers should be more conscious about reality of liability towards proper care to their birds rather than probably assuming government taking responsibility in terms of compensation. I hope other states should be alerted for containment.
