Introduction: veterinarian station boards are scattered, and a large number of blank points are left in grass-roots epidemic prevention On January 29, this year, the mayor's hotline of Ezhou City, Hubei Province received a call The caller was Liao Huaqiao, a villager in Guaqi village, Futuan township He said that a large number of chickens had died in the village He hoped that some medicine could be made to prevent and cure them He didn't expect that the "chicken plague" reflected by this phone call was finally diagnosed as avian influenza by the National Avian Influenza Reference Laboratory At the same time, some villages in Yingcheng also suffered from a large range of chicken deaths The local county and township governments and animal husbandry and veterinary departments didn't know anything about it The villagers' eating and selling of these sick chickens and dead chickens left many hidden dangers M58 Mei Zuen, director of Hubei Provincial Bureau of animal husbandry, said that as an animal epidemic, especially an infectious disease such as avian influenza, it can be prevented and controlled from the current level of science and technology Prevention is to carry out immune injection Now the vaccine protection rate of avian influenza can reach 90%; it can be controlled After the occurrence of the epidemic point, the epidemic point should be quickly blocked and killed to control the disease source within the minimum range, but our country's The current veterinary management system is not conducive to the prevention and control of animal epidemics M58 It is understood that with the reform of county and township institutions and the promotion of rural tax and fee reform, Township animal husbandry and veterinary stations are facing serious problems There are only more than 500 of the original 1000 grass-roots veterinary stations in Hubei Province, half of which have their brands removed and people scattered, and there are a lot of blank spots in grass-roots epidemic prevention In addition, the management system is not smooth, the epidemic prevention measures are not effective, the construction of the station is lagging behind, and the service means are not satisfactory Backwardness, huge staff and poor quality have become the general current situation of grassroots epidemic prevention; more importantly, the state has not given a penny to grassroots epidemic prevention personnel, and their sources of life are all solved by prevention and control fees, so grassroots teams generally have the phenomenon of light epidemic prevention and heavy treatment According to a person in charge of the animal epidemic prevention and control station of Hubei Animal Husbandry Bureau, under the current system, the epidemic prevention density of Hubei poultry is only more than 20% A deputy stationmaster of the veterinary station in Yangling Town, Yingcheng City, said that after the institutional reform, the people and property of the veterinary station in the town had been transferred to the town, regardless of the town and the Municipal Animal Husbandry Bureau There were 40 veterinarians in the town, except for four people who had the "minimum living insurance", the rest of them had to find their own way to break into the market to earn food, and the stalls and teams for animal and poultry epidemic prevention had been scattered Originally, the town allocated money to the town veterinary station, which then went to the municipal animal husbandry bureau to buy vaccines and veterinary drugs for the prevention and treatment of farmers' livestock and poultry At present, veterinarians can't get any reward from the government and have no money to buy vaccines Even if some vaccines are distributed by their superiors free of charge, veterinarians are still at home, unwilling to work hard and go to villages to get vaccines Song Nianhua, director of m58 animal disease diagnosis center in Hubei Province, said that under the current system, grass-roots veterinarians are very practical, and they can't support themselves without diseases Some veterinarians even use water as a vaccine to make money This situation of animal disease prevention is very worrying She said that with China's accession to the WTO, the national veterinary management system is bound to be in line with the international standards At present, there are 300 stations under construction in China, including 52 stations, laboratories, quarantine and monitoring institutions in Hubei Province Although the state has invested a lot in this part, the current operation is not good Only the basic hardware has no operation funds, but also the personnel quality is low, and the township team is not good Stable, animal epidemic prevention and control system has not changed greatly At present, there is a lack of national control system for the quarantine of animal diseases and animal food safety in China At present, there are multiple management in this area: animal feeding and transportation are quarantined by the veterinarian of the agricultural department; slaughtering and processing are quarantined by the veterinarian of the enterprise; animal products entering the market are enforced by the industrial and commercial and health departments; import and export are in the charge of the entry-exit inspection and quarantine institutions The veterinary administrative organs of the agricultural sector are divided into the central (Ministry), provincial, municipal (prefecture) and county Only a small part of them are government staff as civil servants, and most of them are animal husbandry and veterinary (general) stations that implement block management They are non-governmental personnel of public institutions and rely on their own to break into the market Professor Bi Dingren, Dean of the school of animal medicine, Huazhong Agricultural University, thinks that this kind of non whole process and scattered veterinary supervision mechanism has unclear responsibility and is difficult to have ideal effect According to m58, there are more than 250 confirmed zoonoses and zoonoses in the world, 80 of which are more important There are more than 30 known zoonoses and zoonoses in many countries There are about 90 confirmed zoonoses in China Avian influenza, anthrax, tuberculosis, foot-and-mouth disease and other infectious diseases are often transmitted to people through human contact with animals or through eating the meat of the disease In 1985, the epidemic of hepatitis A in Shanghai was caused by eating the polluted clams, which is a typical example Due to the imperfect epidemic prevention and quarantine system of livestock, the export of meat products in China has been repeatedly confronted with green trade barriers abroad Song Nianhua, director of the animal epidemic diagnosis center of Hubei Province, said: 'in terms of laboratory standards, we are basically the same as OIE standards, but there is a big gap between administrative standards and epidemic prevention standards EU, Russia, Japan and other countries have all restricted the import of Chinese meat products, which has a lot to do with animal epidemics From feed production, disease monitoring, vaccine control, means and procedures of epidemic prevention and quarantine, these countries and regions are skeptical of our whole process M58 according to a research project presided over by Professor Liu Xiufan of Yangzhou University, the mortality rate of main livestock and poultry in China is much higher than that in developed countries The direct economic loss of animal husbandry caused by animal epidemics each year amounts to 26 billion to 30 billion yuan, and the loss of veterinary health and other losses is about 70 billion yuan At present, animal husbandry is an important part of farmers' income increase The weakening of animal disease prevention and control directly "robs" farmers' income M58 at present, the intensive and large-scale level of livestock production in China is relatively low, and family farmers are all over the countryside The production share of individual farmers in Hubei accounts for about 70% of the total amount of the province Meanwhile, family breeding income is also an important source of farmers' income Shi Qiuyan, a senior veterinary physician at the animal epidemic prevention and control station of Hubei Provincial Bureau of animal husbandry, said that at present, Hubei's epidemic prevention funds are invested according to the principle of phased burden and classified management, half of which are in the province, 1 / 6 in the local area and 1 / 3 in the individual He said that the effect of such investment is very poor The epidemic prevention density of poultry in the whole province is only more than 20%, and a large number of family farmers are unwilling to pay for vaccination It is understood that several villagers in Guaqi village, Futuan Township, Ezhou city did not inject avian influenza vaccine to chickens Zhou Baoqing, deputy secretary of the township party committee, told reporters that chickens generally need to be vaccinated with various vaccines, such as chicken plague, bursal disease and avian influenza, from the time when they leave the shell to 48 days The cost of a single chicken vaccine is 7 cents This large chicken farm is willing to provide the money, but the retail investors who engage in family breeding are unwilling to fight Deng Xifu, head of the animal quarantine station of E Zhou City, m58, thinks that animal disease prevention has obvious external benefits and is a public welfare undertaking The state should consider taking it on and implementing free prevention as a subsidy for farmers to develop family breeding It is understood that at present, only 6% of the places in Hubei Province are subject to compulsory immunization with money from the state every year, and the principle of using these investments is where to go most After the outbreak of avian influenza, almost every place has enjoyed this fund, with more than 700000 places and less than 100000 Mei Zuen, director of the Provincial Animal Husbandry Bureau, calculated that if free epidemic prevention was implemented, the total cost of livestock and poultry vaccine plus labor costs in Hubei Province would be about 300 million yuan According to the actual amount of livestock and poultry breeding in Hubei Province, if we achieve a higher epidemic prevention density and reduce the death rate of livestock and poultry by 1 percentage point, we can recover the direct and indirect economic losses of 950 million yuan from the God of plague The government's investment is well worth it M58 set up the official veterinary system to build the "Great Wall" of epidemic prevention This year's No.1 document of the Central Committee raised the issue of strengthening the construction of animal epidemic prevention system, which will bring new opportunities to the development of animal husbandry The animal epidemic prevention system has been improved China's meat products have obvious price advantages in the international market, and the price of animal products will rise again, and farmers' waistbags will be bulging After the entry of m58 into WTO, China's meat products export can enjoy low tariff, few barriers and all kinds of most favored nation treatment among WTO members, which is good for the development of China's animal husbandry; however, experts also call on the state to establish an official veterinary system in accordance with the provisions of WTO Jia Youling, chief animal husbandry engineer of m58 Ministry of agriculture, said that the veterinary industry is a special industry with strong administrative characteristics and high technical requirements It is necessary for China to reform the veterinary management system The core and key of the reform is to introduce the internationally accepted official veterinary system in combination with China's national conditions According to the commitment of China's accession to the WTO, the veterinary work in China must comply with the SPS Agreement and the OIE code of animal health According to the definition of OIE, the official veterinary system refers to a system authorized by the national veterinary administrative department to supervise and manage the veterinary health of animals, animal products and biological products related to animal health and human safety, and bear corresponding responsibilities; the official veterinary is a system authorized by the state to exercise its authority, not only has the right to implement the whole process of animal and animal product production The implementation of animal health measures shall be supervised independently and effectively, and relevant animal health certificates shall be issued The m58 official veterinary system has become the main index to evaluate the ability of animal health management in a country and an important indicator of the international recognition of the ability of animal product safety supervision At present, in the United States, the European Union, Australia, Japan, South Korea and other countries and regions, the prevention and control of animal epidemics and the management of animal food safety are all based on the standards, guidelines or suggestions formulated under the auspices of the International Bureau of animal epidemics In the domestic laws and standards system, the unified, vertical and whole process management of veterinarians is highlighted, which better ensures the veterinary production of animal products in the whole process Supervision has broken the disadvantages of multiple law enforcement and unclear responsibility, and reduced the risk of animal epidemic prevention and animal food safety to a lower level M58
