OFFLU

OFFLU is a WOAH-FAO global network of expertise on animal influenza, working to reduce the negative impacts of animal influenza viruses by promoting effective collaboration between animal health experts and with the human health sector.

The animal health community will provide early recognition and characterisation of emerging influenza viral strains in animal populations, and effective management of known infections, thereby better managing the risk to human health and supporting global food security, animal health and welfare, and other community benefits derived from domestic animals and wildlife.

Importance to the Egg Industry

The objectives of OFFLU are:

  • To share and offer technical advice, training and veterinary expertise to international organisations and member countries to assist in the prevention, diagnosis, surveillance and control of animal influenza.
  • To exchange scientific data and biological materials (including virus strains) within the network, to analyse such data, and to share such information with the wider scientific community.
  • To collaborate with the WHO on issues relating to the animal-human interface, including pandemic preparedness for early preparation of human vaccine.
  • To highlight influenza surveillance and research needs, promote their development and co-ordination.

The IEC is an official contributing organisation to OFFLU.
