Poultry veterinarians will gather for update on latest health issues at WVPA Asia Meeting

Published: September 5, 2016
On 20-21st October, Asian poultry veterinarians and poultry health scientists will be meeting in Manila, Philippines, to listen to experts from around the world speak about the latest developments in the diagnosis, treatment, management and control of poultry diseases. Diseases being covered include avian influenza, Newcastle disease, coccidiosis, colibacillosis, necrotic enteritis and pasteurellosis.
 
The first day features technical presentations from the regional and global veterinary experts within the commercial companies who are supporting the meeting as well the prestigious Asian Avian Pathology Lecture. This year’s Avian Pathology Lecturer is Prof Aini Ideris from Malaysia who will be reflecting on the recent advances on Newcastle Disease Virus. On the second day, researchers from the region will share their latest findings with delegates.
 
This meeting will also host the presentation of two of WVPA’s awards – the WVPA-Zoetis Young Poultry Veterinarian Award and the WVPA Merial Innovation in Vaccination Award. "This is the third of our Asian meetings", said WVPA president, Nigel Horrox. “And it has already become a ‘must attend’ meeting for those involved in all aspects of poultry health in Asia. We are looking forward to another good Asian meeting with plenty of new information and networking opportunities”.

Actually not only these diseases, we also face a problem of IB. Because some vaccines are not giving full protection for IB. If you all can provide a solution for this it is great Dr M.Kodituwakku

Dear sir, most of vets are employed by govt or private companies so can it be possible for WVPA to issue formal letter of invitation so that they easily get clearance from their employers to attend WVPA Asia meeting. Regards Dr.manish sahrawat

Yes, of course very harmfull for public health , antibiotic residual effect in the feed for human consumsion , it's a big challangee to ensure laws, regulation in our country(Bangladesh), because of both producers & consumers are not aware about that , some body still not know the meaning of food safety, so dear sir Mr. Halim we should do more work regarding development of the awareness in the community, I have a request to mr. Halim , if you have no any bindings pls introduce yourself completely, DGM in where? Dr.Saeed mentioned by vaccination, i agree with him but i would like to add another condition if management allows or management favour the pre-condition of using vaccine, pratically i observed good result .Necrotic enteritis- is the result of clostrodium infection, we know it is soil borne , so i think by improving bio-security it will controll some extend, if already get infected we can think about herbal .

Dear SM Haleem. Nice decision by your Govt for Humen health. Know we can control the coccidiosis through vaccination and necrotic entritis through management and nuracutical products available in the market. Regards Dr.Saeed

Please make a program how to control coccidiosis and necrotic enteritis for rearing commercial broiler. Now antibiotics are banded in feed by government. It is good decision but some companies are sold antibiotics to customers by given alternative name. It is a big challenge for human health. Can be possible stop feed grade antibiotics production and sell for rearing commercial broiler and layer.

Diseases like Avian Influenza and Newcastle disease have been reported by the OIE in certain parts of the world. It is important for the Poultry Vets to give an update of the situation of these two diseases at the conference. It is necessary to encourage the young poultry veterinarians to participate in the conference.
