On the contrary, the Japanese measures provide thorough preventive guidelines and even anti-virus countermeasures against the AI infection from wild birds even for farms. ○ In order to improve the current preventive policy against AI infection, - firstly, complementary plans for the sustainable eco-friendly livestock policy are needed to resolve fundamental problems of animal diseases; - secondly, responding guidelines should be more specific, and interdepartmental cooperative relationships and information network should be established; - finally, a joint research network among Northeast Asian countries including Korea, China, Taiwan and Japan should be established to reinforce the quarantine system at the borders and seek for preventive measures against the transmission of the virus through wild birds. 한국농촌경제연구원 The Status of AI Outbreak and Response and the Direction of Preventive Measures The Status of AI Outbreak and Response and the Direction of Preventive Measures KREI 이슈리포트 Huh, Duk Han, Bonghee Kim, Hyeongjin Lee, Hyungwoo Kim, Jinnyoun
