Laying hen farm in Gwirae-myeon, Wonju-si, Gangwon-do.

People in quarantine uniforms rush into the farm.

The entrance to the farm was completely restricted from outsiders.

On a farm with 170,000 chickens, 350 have died in the last five days.

The farm owner reported it to the quarantine authorities, and the test result detected an H5 type antigen suspected of highly pathogenic avian influenza.

It has been 4 years since AI occurred in poultry farms in Gangwon Province.

Within a 10km radius of the farm, 344 farms are raising 970,000 poultry such as chickens and ducks.

The quarantine authorities have decided to urgently dispose of all 170,000 chickens.

In addition to Corona 19, Gangwon Province is suffering from measles due to African swine fever.

We are literally suffering from triple highs, hitting bird flu here.

African swine fever is also falling southward.

On the 22nd, the dead body of a wild boar suffering from African swine fever was discovered again in the Yeongwol area, the southernmost tip of Gangwon-do, at the border with Chungcheong-do.

The double-triple wide-area fence was also useless to prevent the ASF virus.
