Alarm in the Berlin animal shelter: Newcastle disease adds birds!

In the Berlin animal shelter, alarm level is currently announced! Because the Newcastle disease, a highly contagious and fatal viral disease for birds, broke out, the animal protection association had to order an abrupt stop of all advice days. This was announced last Friday, December 13, after several birds had already become ill. This virus is not dangerous for humans, but represents a massive threat to the already tense animal mediation, since a rapid spread of the 373 birds in the shelter must be prevented, as the CEO of the animal welfare association for Berlin, Eva Rönspieß. The animal shelter's team is both emotionally and physically at the limit, since they are faced with scandalous conditions and have to fight for the safety of their animals, those responsible report on Instagram.

The measures for containment are strict: from now on all consultations and placements are only possible with prior appointment, since the protection of the remaining birds has a top priority. The nurses take rigorous hygiene measures, including multiple disinfection of the hands and shoes, to avoid further spread of the virus. "We bathe in disinfectant," continued Rönspieß. According to the Senate Department for Consumer Protection, eleven birds have died from the disease since mid -November and with at least seven other pigeons, the virus has been demonstrated, which makes the situation more escalating. Those affected report an emotional turmoil under the morning hours, while they do everything they can to save the fate of the animals that they are dear to.

The Berlin animal shelter will work with the responsible authorities in the coming weeks in order to manage the situation in the best possible way and to protect the remaining animals. In the meantime, the efforts double to contain this devastating disease as quickly as possible and to secure the endangered bird stocks. The animal shelter management hopes that the situation can be brought under control. For those affected and animal lovers, it can be hoped that the animal protection association will soon be able to transform the horror report into positive news, while the first animal lovers are already turning to the team in order to show their support in this difficult phase, as n-tv.de not.
