What are the treatments for Avian Influenza?
Suspected avian influenza requires immediate veterinary and official advice, not home treatment. Phone the Emergency Animal Disease Hotline on 1800 675 888, avoid moving birds and follow the relevant authority’s instructions. Do not medicate the flock or transport an ill bird to a clinic without first telling the veterinarian about the suspicion.
A suspected outbreak is not a home-treatment problem
Official investigation may require sampling and disease-control measures. Do not assume that vitamins or antibiotics will make it safe to move or mix affected birds.
