In response to the outbreak of avian influenza in Dachau, Germany, local emergency services including the fire department and the Technical Relief Agency (THW) have set up a logistics center in Hebertshausen. This center serves as a base for coordinated efforts that include monitoring and sampling to control the spread of the disease more effectively. As reported by the Dachau district fire inspection, this initiative demonstrates a proactive approach to a public health concern affecting poultry farming in the area.

The logistics facility is located on the premises of the disaster control center owned by the district. It has been specially equipped with changing areas and cleaning facilities for personnel who will inspect and disinfect affected farms. This ensures that staff has the proper resources to carry out their responsibilities safely and effectively while minimizing the risk of spreading the virus further.

Additionally, firefighters are actively disinfecting facilities in the region, notably in Wiedenzhausen. A stockpile for necessary materials such as protective equipment has been established, and cleaning and disinfection systems for vehicles and equipment are in place to prevent possible transmission of the virus. These measures underscore the seriousness of the avian influenza threat and the community's commitment to safeguarding public health and animal welfare.
