Summary

Successful emergency programs can control aquatic animal diseases like viral haemorrhagic septicaemia (VHS) and infectious salmon anaemia (ISA). Effective strategies require robust legislation, quarantine, and farmer cooperation for disease eradication.

Area of Science:

  • Aquatic Animal Health
  • Veterinary Epidemiology
  • Fish Disease Control

Background:

  • Viral Haemorrhagic Septicaemia (VHS) virus was first isolated in North America in 1988 from salmon.
  • Existing fish disease control policies in the USA mandated quarantine and eradication for exotic pathogens.
  • Infectious Salmon Anaemia (ISA) has a history of outbreaks in Norway, necessitating control measures.

Purpose of the Study:

  • To review successful emergency programs for eradicating or controlling aquatic animal diseases.
  • To examine legislative frameworks and control strategies for fish diseases in North America, Europe, and Great Britain.
  • To identify future needs for national and international legislation in aquatic animal disease management.

Main Methods:

  • Review of emergency program examples for disease control.

  • Case study of a viral haemorrhagic septicaemia outbreak in turbot in Great Britain.
  • Historical review of infectious salmon anaemia control in Norway.

    • Main Results:

    • Emergency programs involving quarantine, stock destruction, and disinfection proved effective against VHS.
    • Legislation in Great Britain and the EU outlines procedures for notifiable disease suspicion and confirmation.
    • Control of ISA spread in Norway was achieved through movement restrictions and disinfection, emphasizing farmer acceptance.

    Conclusions:

    • Effective control of aquatic animal diseases relies on comprehensive legislation and emergency preparedness.
    • International cooperation and standardized control approaches are crucial for managing transboundary aquatic diseases.
    • Further research into disease epidemiology and enhanced infrastructure are needed for future disease management.
