🇪🇺is increasingly exposed to transboundary animal diseases. Prevention, preparedness&resilience must therefore be at the heart of our response. In my message to @WOAH_Europe Regional Conference, I underlined the need for stronger coordination&science-based vaccination strategies https://t.co/i6ySA7YaeT #AnimalHealth #Vaccination #EUCoordination #EU
Peste des Petits Ruminants (PPR), also known as sheep and goat plague, is a highly contagious animal disease affecting small ruminants🐑🐏🐐. Once introduced, the virus can infect up to 90 percent of an animal heard, and the disease kills anywhere from 30 to 70 percent of https://t.co/THdgzztT9f #PesteDesPetitsRuminants #AnimalHealth #LivestockDiseases #Therearenospecificcountriesmentionedinthetweetprovided.
We also discussed animal health: on African swine fever, 🇫🇮 authorities have acted swiftly. @EU_Commission is working closely with them to keep the situation contained & support 🇫🇮 where needed. ASF is a clear reminder that prevention, preparedness & rapid action are essential. #AnimalHealth #AfricanSwineFever #EUCommission #FI
The best way to fight animal diseases is to prevent them before they spread. In my message to @AnimalhealthEU, I underlined that prevention, preparedness, surveillance & vaccination must go hand in hand to protect farmers, food security, rural communities & public health ⬇️ https://t.co/V2gIH9aCM6 #AnimalHealth #Prevention #FoodSecurity #EU
The @EU_Commission stands ready to follow up swiftly by helping strengthen preparedness and implementation on the ground & supporting the wider use of preventive vaccination where appropriate. Together with all the stakeholders, we will keep animal health a political priority. #AnimalHealth #Vaccination #EUStrategy #EU
Today, at the Conference marking 10 years of the 🇪🇺 #AnimalHealthLaw, we reflect on what Europe has achieved and how we prepare for the challenges ahead. #AnimalHealth is about much more than farming. It underpins food security, public health, trade and economic resilience ⤵️ https://t.co/5UocR1T5Uw #AnimalHealth #FoodSecurity #PublicHealth #EU
Prevention is better than cure for animal health, farmers and 🇪🇺food security. The new #LivestockStrategy also addresses #animalwelfare, because healthy, well-cared-for animals mean stronger farms, safer food systems and more resilient rural communities. Watch my key messages⬇️ https://t.co/DScrmWOMrA #AnimalHealth #FoodSecurity #AnimalWelfare #EU
a stronger, more preventive framework to tackle animal diseases & protect farmers, citizens and trade across 🇪🇺. The evaluation also looks ahead. We must: 🔹improve implementation of the rules 🔹strengthen preparedness for emerging diseases 🔹use vaccination where appropriate. #AnimalHealth #DiseasePrevention #FarmersFirst #EU
On #WorldZoonosesDay, marking 141 years since Louis Pasteur administered the first successful rabies vaccine, we are reminded that protecting animal health means protecting public health. The evaluation of the #AnimalHealthLaw adopted today confirms that it has delivered⤵️ https://t.co/hl56rwdbtD #WorldZoonosesDay #AnimalHealth #PublicHealth #Thetweetdoesnotmentionanyspecificcountries.Thus #therearenocountrycodestoreturn.
Vaccination is an essential science-based tool for prevention. It should not be seen as a weakness, nor become a barrier to trade. It is part of a modern and responsible approach to animal health. #Vaccination #AnimalHealth #ScienceBased #Nospecificcountrycodesarementionedinthetweet.
Recent outbreaks show that animal health threats are becoming more frequent, less predictable and more interconnected. We must use all tools at our disposal: strong veterinary services, surveillance, biosecurity, disease control measures and vaccination. #AnimalHealth #VeterinaryServices #Biosecurity #Therearenospecificcountrycodesinthetweetprovided.
In 94 confirmed outbreaks of ASF last week, traces of contact with the virus were confirmed in 257 wild boars. 83 outbreaks involved dead wild boars, 8 were shot wild boars, and 3 were wild boars killed in traffic accidents.

In 2026, a total of 117 outbreaks of highly pathogenic avian influenza and 46 outbreaks of alleged fowl plague were confirmed. These outbreaks necessitated the culling of 8,758,292 and 3,571,229 animals, respectively, totaling 12,329,521 animals. The diseases affected most of the area. (Original: W 2026 roku potwierdzono łącznie 117 ognisk wysoce zjadliwej grypy ptaków oraz 46 ognisk rzekomego pomoru drobiu. Ogniska te wymusiły konieczność wybicia odpowiednio 8 758 292 i 3 571 229 co daje razem wartość 12 329 521 zwierząt.
