Veterinary Practitioners Board


Avian influenza (H5 bird flu)

Veterinary practitioners should remain informed about avian influenza (H5 bird flu) and current national guidance.

For the latest information, visit birdflu.gov.au. Additional information for veterinary practitioners is available on the Vets and bird flu webpage.

Please note: The ACT Veterinary Practitioners Board does not coordinate public health or biosecurity responses to avian influenza.

The Board's vision is to be a trusted guardian for the safety and wellbeing of animals, the veterinary profession and the community. As a regulator, we are progressive, transparent, responsive and collaborative.
