SARAJEVO, Feb 22 (Hina) - A crisis management committee for monitoring bird flu in Bosnia-Herzegovina on Wednesday assessed that measures it had taken against spreading of avian influenza were effective.

The measures to contain the disease were taken after it was confirmed that some swans found dead around the Plivska Jezera Lakes in western Bosnia were infected with the lethal H5N1 strain of the flu.

Several minister of Bosnia-Herzegovina and its Croat-Muslim entity on Wednesday held a news conference in Sarajevo to confirm that the culling of local poultry in the area of Jajce had been completed.

The crisis management committee added that the monitoring would be performed in next 21 days, too, and it would react, if necessary.

Local authorities have also enured funds to compensate households whose poultry was culled as a preventive measure.

Persons who were in direct contact with the infected swans are under constant medical supervision.

Bosnian authorities have been carrying out intensified control over the entire territory of the country.
