SAN JOSE De BUENAVISTA, Antique -- The Antique Provincial Veterinary (ProVet) is coordinating with the Philippine Coast Guard (PCG) for a close monitoring of the Antique ports against the entry of Avian Influenza or bird flu.
Dr. Romeo Magdatu, ProVet head, said they have coordinated with the PCG in San Jose and would be meetin with the coast guard in Culasi and Libertad on Friday. “Next week I will be in Caluya also,” the ProVet head said.
The ports in the Antique towns of San Jose, Culasi, Libertad and Semirara in Caluya are being closely watched in the wake of bird flu outbreak in Pampanga.
These ports are possible entry points of egg shipments from Pampanga.
However, most of the eggs in the Antique markets are being supplied by two big local and backyard poultry farms.
Antique remains free from the Avian flu virus. (PNA)
