Council Directive 2005/94/EC of 20 December 2005 on Community measures for the control of avian influenza and repealing Directive 92/40/EEC · European Union

(8) Certain influenza viruses of avian origin may in some circumstances affect humans and may then pose a serious risk to public health. The provisions of this Directive, which aim at fighting the disease in farmed animals, could indirectly contribute to preventing public health problems. However, it is, at this stage, chiefly for the Member States to tackle such problems.
