HPAI H5nx Situation in Bulgaria HPAI H5Nx situation in Bulgaria Assoc. Prof. Gabriela Goujgoulova, DVM, PhD, NDRVMI, Sofia, Bulgaria, Bianca Zecchin, Alice Fusaro, Isabella Monne, Calogero Terregino EU/OIE/National Reference Laboratory for Avian Influenza and Newcastle Disease IZSVe, Legnaro (Italy) POULTRY SECTOR IN BULGARIA Distribution of farms for ducks, broilers, laying hens and breeding flocks HIGH RISK AREAS FOR HPAI IN BULGARIA Main migration routes across the country • Via Pontica • Via Aritotelis HIGH RISK AREAS FOR HPAI IN BULGARIA Outbreaks of HPAI for 2019 OUTBREAKS 2020 First outbreak is on 17.02.2020 Six of the outbreaks are in a 10 km zone of the first outbreak. In a 3 km zone there are 25 poultry farms (136,669 mule ducks), and in a 10-km zone - 24 poultry farms (167,349 mule ducks and 127,550 hens). Transport is cited as a major risk factor, as both hens and waterfowl are transported by the same vehicles. OUTBREAKS 2020 The sixth outbreak is in Kardzhali The car owned by a Plovdiv company, which supplies the farm in Kardzhali with cardboard egg boxes, circulates between other farms in the region of town Rakovski.

In particular, the H5N8 virus from outbreak 2020/2 is highly related to the virus from outbreak 2020/5, while the virus from outbreak 2020/7 clusters with the virus from outbreak 2020/9 for all the eight gene segments. Maximum Likelihood phylogenetic tree of the PB2 gene (IQ-TREE v.1.6.8) H5N2 The H5N2 viruses from outbreaks 2020/1 (mule ducks), 2020/3 (hens), 2020/6 (hens) and 2020/8 (hens) were generated after the occurrence of multiple reassortment events. In the H5N2 reassortant strain: ➢ the HA and M genes cluster with H5N8 viruses circulating in Bulgaria in 2017-2020; ➢ the N2 gene clusters with a H4N2 virus identified in duck in Bulgaria in 2018 and with H6N2 viruses identified in mule ducks in Bulgaria in 2009-2010. ➢ the other gene segments cluster with LPAI viruses identified in wild and domestic birds in Eurasia. Of note, the NS gene segment of the Bulgarian H5N2 viruses belongs to allele B, while the H5N8 viruses possess the allele A.

Molecular analysis • Molecular analysis of the HA protein revealed that the Bulgarian H5N2 viruses, obtained from outbreak 2020/1 and 2020/3, possess a potential additional glycosylation site at position 70-72 (D70N) (numbering starting form the first methionine) which indicates an adaptation of the virus to domestic birds (Matrosovich et al., 1999; Banks and Plowright, 2003). • For the NA protein, potential additional glycosylation sites were identified in the H5N8 viruses from outbreak 2020/7 and 2020/9 at position 411-413 (E411N). • No evidence of mutations associated with mammalian adaptation in all the analysed viruses was recorded.

Click to Enlarge Image HISTORICAL BACKGROUND Early Settlement and Empire: According to archaeologists, present-day Bulgaria first attracted human settlement as early as the Neolithic Age, about 5000 B.C. The first known civilization in the region was that of the Thracians, whose culture reached a peak in the sixth century B.C. Because of disunity, in the ensuing centuries Thracian territory was occupied successively by the Greeks, Persians, Macedonians, and Romans. A Thracian kingdom still existed under the Roman Empire until the first century A.D., when Thrace was incorporated into the empire, and Serditsa was established as a trading center on the site of the modern Bulgarian capital, Sofia.

  • Annex REPORT for 2019 UNDER the “HEALTH CARE” PRIORITY of the NATIONAL ROMA INTEGRATION STRATEGY of the REPUBLIC of BULGAR
    Annex REPORT FOR 2019 UNDER THE “HEALTH CARE” PRIORITY of the NATIONAL ROMA INTEGRATION STRATEGY OF THE REPUBLIC OF BULGARIA 2012 - 2020 Operational objective: A national monitoring progress report has been prepared for implementation of Measure 1.1.2. “Performing obstetric and gynaecological examinations with mobile offices in settlements with compact Roma population”. During the period 01.07—20.11.2019, a total of 2,261 prophylactic medical examinations were carried out with the four mobile gynaecological offices to uninsured persons of Roma origin and to persons with difficult access to medical facilities, as 951 women were diagnosed with diseases. The implementation of the activity for each Regional Health Inspectorate is in accordance with an order of the Minister of Health to carry out not less than 500 examinations with each mobile gynaecological office. Financial resources of BGN 12,500 were allocated for each mobile unit, totalling BGN 50,000 for the four units. During the reporting period, the mobile gynecological offices were divided into four areas: Varna (the city of Varna, the village of Kamenar, the town of Ignatievo, the village of Staro Oryahovo, the village of Sindel, the village of Dubravino, the town of Provadia, the town of Devnya, the town of Suvorovo, the village of Chernevo, the town of Valchi Dol); Silistra (Tutrakan Municipality– the town of Tutrakan, the village of Tsar Samuel, the village of Nova Cherna, the village of Staro Selo, the village of Belitsa, the village of Preslavtsi, the village of Tarnovtsi,

Bibliography 273 Abstract The nation-state is now the dominant form of sovereign statehood, however, a century and a half ago the political map of Europe comprised only a handful of sovereign states, very few of them nations in the modern sense. Balkan historiography often tends to minimize the complexity of nation-building, either by referring to the national community as to a monolithic and homogenous unit, or simply by neglecting different social groups whose consciousness varied depending on region, gender and generation. Further, Bulgarian and Serbian historiography pay far more attention to the problem of "how" and "why" certain events have happened than to the emergence of national consciousness of the Balkan peoples as a complex and durable process of mental evolution. This dissertation on the concept of nationality in which most Bulgarians and Serbs were educated and socialized examines how the modern idea of nationhood was disseminated among the ordinary people and it presents the complicated process of national indoctrination carried out by various state institutions.

  • Study of the Bioaccumulation of Heavy Metals in Astacus Leptodactylus in Some Areas of the Kardzhali Dam
    TRADITION AND MODERNITY IN VETERINARY MEDICINE, 2018, vol. 3, No 2(5): 90–93 STUDY OF THE BIOACCUMULATION OF HEAVY METALS IN ASTACUS LEPTODACTYLUS IN SOME AREAS OF THE KARDZHALI DAM Desislava Arnaudova, Aneliya Pavlova, Atanas Arnaudov Faculty of Biology, University of Plovdiv “Paisii Hilendarski”, Plovdiv, Bulgaria E-mail: [email protected] ABSTRACT It is examined the contents of lead, cadmium and nickel in the water of Kardzhali dam, as well as the bioaccumulation of the heavy metals in two organs – liver and muscles of Astacus leptodactylus. In tissue samples is reported increasing of cadmium in samples of liver. The bioaccumulation coefficient was calculated on the basis of the average content of lead, cadmium and nickel in the organs of Astacus leptodactylus. We recorded that the studied crayfish are macroconcentrators for cadmium. The analyzes have shown that lake crayfish to be defined as a biomarker in toxicity testing in contami- nated waters. Key words: heavy metals, Astacus leptodactylus, crayfish, bioaccumulation. Introduction Depending on the water sites’ location by the source of contamination, different levels of lead, cadmium and nickel accumulation have been found in the tissues of crayfish (7). The concentration of heavy metals in the organs of the lake crawfish Astacus leptodactylus Eschscholtz, 1823 and other crayfish has been researched by 1, 3, 4, 6, 10, 11, 13 etc., but there are no data on the transfer of lead, cadmium and nickel in Astacus leptodactylus along the “water– crayfish” in the food chain. The research was made in different zones of the Kardzhali dam which is anthropogenically influenced by heavy metals.
