**EFSA Unveils Enhanced Bird Flu Radar to Monitor Global Disease Spread** The European Food Safety Authority (EFSA) has launched an upgraded version of its Bird Flu Radar tool. This interactive platform provides real-time information on the distribution and movements of bird flu viruses worldwide. The enhanced tool incorporates data from EFSA's Migration Mapping Tool, which combines satellite tracking data from birds with expert knowledge on migratory patterns. This provides a comprehensive picture of potential avian influenza pathways and helps authorities identify areas at higher risk. **Key Features of the Improved Bird Flu Radar:** * Enhanced user interface for improved navigation * Addition of an alert system to notify users of potential disease outbreaks * Integration of data on virus diversity and genetic sequencing * Improved visualization tools for data analysis **Purpose of the Tool:** The Bird Flu Radar aims to: * Monitor and predict the spread of bird flu viruses * Identify areas vulnerable to infection * Support early detection and response efforts * Protect animal and human health **Introductory Video:** EFSA has released an introductory video explaining the capabilities and benefits of the enhanced Bird Flu Radar. The video is available on the EFSA website and provides a comprehensive overview of the tool. EFSA's Bird Flu Radar is an essential resource for veterinarians, epidemiologists, policymakers, and anyone involved in avian health management. It provides timely and accurate information to support informed decision-making and enhance preparedness for bird flu outbreaks.
