1 Dr Gillian Mylrea World Organisation for Animal Health OIE Regional Workshop for National Focal Points for Aquatic Animals Dubai, UAE, September 2010 OIE Listed Aquatic Animal Diseases: Notification and Reporting Obligations

2 So. What do we do with these OIE- listed diseases? What types of information should Members provide to the OIE regarding these listed disease? Why collect all this information? How is this information processed and accessible?

3 Since Members Objectives: Ensure transparency of the animal disease situation worldwide Safeguard world trade by publishing health standards for international trade in animals and animal products Collect, analyse and disseminate veterinary scientific information Encourage international solidarity in the control of animal diseases Improve the legal framework and resources of national Veterinary Services Food safety and animal welfare

4 LEGAL OBLIGATIONS Since its creation in 1924 both the OIE and its Members have unconditional duties to disclose all relevant information on animal diseases

5 LEGAL OBLIGATIONS These obligations are stated in The OIE Organic Statutes (since 1924) The OIE Codes (updated annually)

6 LEGAL OBLIGATIONS The OIE Codes Chapter 1.1. Notification of Diseases and Epidemiological Information Aquatic Code Article : Members shall make available to other Members, through the OIE, whatever information is necessary to minimise the spread of aquatic animal diseases and their aetiological agents and to assist in achieving better worldwide control of these diseases.

7 TYPES OF REPORTS Immediate notification of disease, infection or unusual epidemiological events Weekly reports: Follow-ups to the immediate notification Final report : - if the outbreaks have ended - if the situation becomes endemic early warning Six-monthly report Annual report monitoring

8 GENERAL OBJECTIVES OF THE SYSTEM Immediate notifications and Follows-ups OIE s early warning system International alert messages Rapid response Regular information through six-monthly and annual reports OIE s monitoring system To monitor OIE Listed diseases (presence or absence) over time

9 OIE S EARLY WARNING SYSTEM Reporting Timeframes Immediate notification within 24 hours Follow-up report weekly report Follow-up to the immediate notification to inform on changes in the epidemiological situation Final report

10 REASONS FOR IMMEDIATE NOTIFICATION WITHIN 24 HOURS 1 - The first occurrence / re-occurrence of a listed disease and/or infection in a country or zone/compartment that was previously considered to be free of that particular disease; or

11 REASONS FOR IMMEDIATE NOTIFICATION WITHIN 24 HOURS 2 - for diseases listed by the OIE, if the disease has occurred in a new host species; or 3 - for diseases listed by the OIE, if the disease has occurred with a new pathogen strain or in a new disease manifestation; or

12 REASONS FOR IMMEDIATE NOTIFICATION WITHIN 24 HOURS 4 - for diseases listed by the OIE, if the disease has a newly recognised zoonotic potential; or 5 - for diseases not listed by the OIE, if there is a case of an emerging disease or pathogenic agent should there be findings that are of epidemiological significance to other countries.

13 Reporting obligations Reporting (regular and immediate notification) of aquatic animal diseases does not require the presence of clinical disease or mortality. The Aquatic Code (Article ) clarifies that: The presence of an infectious agent, even in the absence of clinical disease, should be reported.

14 OIE s monitoring system Six-monthly report - the absence or presence of OIE-listed diseases - evolution of all listed diseases - findings of epidemiological importance to other Members with respect to diseases not listed by OIE

15 OIE s monitoring system Annual report The sum of information of the two six-monthly reports of a given year and: non OIE-listed diseases; human resources in Veterinary Services; National Reference Laboratories; animal census (by first administrative division); zoonoses (human cases and deaths); production of vaccines.
