Ein Ausbruch der Vogelgrippe bei Seehunden vor der K\u00fcste Washingtons hat die Beh\u00f6rden dazu veranlasst, eine Warnung herauszugeben, in der die Menschen aufgefordert werden, Vorsichtsma\u00dfnahmen zu treffen und sich von den erkrankten Tieren fernzuhalten.<\/p>\n

Avi\u00e4re Influenza oder Vogelgrippe ist eine hochgradige Infektionskrankheit ansteckend<\/a> Krankheit, die sowohl Wild- als auch Hausv\u00f6gel bef\u00e4llt. Abh\u00e4ngig von der Art der Viren, die die Infektion verursachen, gibt es mehrere Untervarianten wie H5N1, H5N3 und H5N8.<\/p>\n

Das aktuelle H5N1 Ausbruch<\/a> hat mehr als 60 Millionen V\u00f6geln das Leben gekostet und kursiert in freier Wildbahn V\u00f6gel<\/a> seit Januar 2022.<\/p>\n

Nach Angaben der National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration West Coast Region wurden seit September mehrere ausgewachsene Seehunde in der Region Puget Sound in Washington positiv auf den H5N1-Stamm getestet.<\/p>\n

\u201eEs ist wirklich ein beispielloser Ausbruch. Die Anzahl der beteiligten L\u00e4nder und die Anzahl der beteiligten Tierarten, sowohl V\u00f6gel als auch S\u00e4ugetiere, haben wir absolut noch nie zuvor gesehen. Obwohl die Wahrscheinlichkeit, dass sich eine Person im Bundesstaat Washington infiziert, gering ist, ist es dennoch klug, Vorsichtsma\u00dfnahmen zu treffen\u201c, sagte Dr. Peter Rabinowitz, Professor f\u00fcr Familienmedizin und Direktor des Center for One Health Research der UW, in einem Pressemitteilung<\/a>.<\/p>\n

Normalerweise breitet sich die Virusinfektion unter V\u00f6geln aus. Nachdem jedoch die Zahl der F\u00e4lle von H5N1-Vogelgrippe bei S\u00e4ugetieren zunahm, WER<\/a> \u00e4u\u00dferte die Sorge, dass es Anpassungen erfahren k\u00f6nnte, um Menschen zu infizieren. Einige S\u00e4ugetiere k\u00f6nnen als Mischgef\u00e4\u00dfe f\u00fcr Influenzaviren fungieren, was zu gef\u00e4hrlicheren St\u00e4mmen f\u00fchrt, die ein Risiko f\u00fcr Tiere und Menschen darstellen.<\/p>\n

Der Ausbruch bei S\u00e4ugetieren wurde in zehn L\u00e4ndern auf drei Kontinenten festgestellt.<\/p>\n

Die Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) halten das Risiko f\u00fcr den Menschen jedoch f\u00fcr gering.<\/p>\n

\u201eDas Gesamtrisiko f\u00fcr die menschliche Gesundheit, das mit den anhaltenden Ausbr\u00fcchen hochpathogener Avi\u00e4rer Influenza-A(H5N1)-Viren bei Wildv\u00f6geln und Gefl\u00fcgel einhergeht, hat sich nicht ver\u00e4ndert und bleibt derzeit gering\u201c, so die CDC genannt<\/a> am 5. Oktober.<\/p>\n

Wie kann die Ausbreitung auf den Menschen verhindert werden?<\/strong><\/p>\n

Der erste Schritt zur Pr\u00e4vention besteht darin, jeglichen Kontakt mit kranken oder toten Wildtieren zu vermeiden. Die Anwohner wurden dazu aufgefordert Bericht<\/a> kranke oder tote Wildv\u00f6gel in der Gegend an das Washington Department of Fish and Wildlife.<\/p>\n

\u201eWenn Sie ein krankes Wildtier sehen, besteht immer ein potenzielles Risiko f\u00fcr Sie, wenn Sie es ber\u00fchren oder einer Ansteckung zu nahe kommen. Sie sollten immer gro\u00dfe Vorsicht walten lassen, sich von kranken Tieren fernhalten, die Tierkontrolle rufen und jemanden finden, der mit der Situation umgehen kann und angemessene Schutzausr\u00fcstung verwenden kann. Und das trifft sicherlich zu, wenn man im Bundesstaat Washington kranke Seehunde oder Seev\u00f6gel sieht\u201c, sagte Rabinowitz.<\/p>\n

Depending on the type of viruses that cause the infection, there are several subvariants such as H5N1, H5N3 and H5N8.The current H5N1 outbreak has taken the lives of more than 60 million birds and has been circulating in wild birds since January 2022.Several adult harbor seals in the Puget Sound region in Washington have tested positive for the H5N1 strain since September, according to the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration West Coast Region."It's really an unprecedented outbreak. The number of countries involved, and the number of different types of animals involved, both birds and mammals, is something we've absolutely never seen before. Although the chances are low that a person in Washington state would become infected, it's still smart to take precautions," Dr. Peter Rabinowitz, a professor of family medicine and director of the UW's Center for One Health Research, said in a news release.The viral infection normally spreads among birds. However, after an increasing number of cases of H5N1 avian influenza among mammals, WHO raised concern that it may undergo adaptations to infect humans. Some mammals may act as mixing vessels for influenza viruses, leading to more dangerous strains that pose a risk for animals and humans.The outbreak in mammals has been detected in 10 countries across three continents.However, the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) considers the risk to humans low."The overall risk to human health associated with the ongoing outbreaks of highly pathogenic avian influenza A(H5N1) viruses in wild birds and poultry has not changed and remains low at this time," the CDC said on Oct. 5.How to prevent the spread to humans?The first step toward prevention is to avoid all contact with sick or dead wildlife. Residents have been requested to report sick or dead wild birds in the area to the Washington Department of Fish and Wildlife."When you see a sick wild animal, there is always a potential risk to you if you go up and touch it or get too close to being infected. You should always use a lot of caution, keep away from sick animals, call animal control, and find some way that somebody can deal with it who can use adequate protective equipment. And that's certainly true if you are seeing sick harbor seals or sick seabirds in Washington state," Rabinowitz said.\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:url\" content=\"https:\/\/urbancare.clinic\/de\/die-vogelgrippe-breitet-sich-in-washington-auf-robben-aus-hier-erfahren-sie-was-sie-uber-die-vogelgrippe-h5n1-wissen-mussen\/\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:site_name\" content=\"Urban Care Clinic\" \/>\n<meta property=\"article:publisher\" content=\"https:\/\/www.facebook.com\/urbancarezanzibar\" \/>\n<meta property=\"article:published_time\" content=\"2023-10-12T09:35:52+00:00\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:image\" content=\"https:\/\/urbancare.clinic\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/10\/bird-flu-spreads-to-seals-in-washington-heres-what-you-need-to-know-about-h5n1-avian-influenza.jpg\" \/>\n<meta name=\"author\" content=\"Urban Care Clinic\" \/>\n<meta name=\"twitter:card\" content=\"summary_large_image\" \/>\n<meta name=\"twitter:image\" content=\"https:\/\/urbancare.clinic\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/10\/bird-flu-spreads-to-seals-in-washington-heres-what-you-need-to-know-about-h5n1-avian-influenza.jpg\" \/>\n<meta name=\"twitter:label1\" content=\"Verfasst von\" \/>\n\t<meta name=\"twitter:data1\" content=\"Urban Care Clinic\" \/>\n\t<meta name=\"twitter:label2\" content=\"Gesch\u00e4tzte Lesezeit\" \/>\n\t<meta name=\"twitter:data2\" content=\"2\u00a0Minuten\" \/>\n<script type=\"application\/ld+json\" class=\"yoast-schema-graph\">{\"@context\":\"https:\/\/schema.org\",\"@graph\":[{\"@type\":\"Article\",\"@id\":\"https:\/\/urbancare.clinic\/bird-flu-spreads-to-seals-in-washington-heres-what-you-need-to-know-about-h5n1-avian-influenza\/#article\",\"isPartOf\":{\"@id\":\"https:\/\/urbancare.clinic\/bird-flu-spreads-to-seals-in-washington-heres-what-you-need-to-know-about-h5n1-avian-influenza\/\"},\"author\":{\"name\":\"Urban Care Clinic\",\"@id\":\"https:\/\/urbancare.clinic\/#\/schema\/person\/f286c4d84be896d302aceda3ed7e789c\"},\"headline\":\"Bird Flu Spreads To Seals In Washington;
