Control Measures

• No movement control inside the

country in 2008

• Surveillance outside

containment and/or buffer zone

• Surveillance within containment

and/or buffer zone

• No treatments

Spread of Mortality

• Greater than usual mortalities appear to

be linked to shellfish introductions

• Evidence of spread to naive stock in

same areas

Increased Mortality in Republic of

Ireland 2008

Marine Institute data

• 3 reports of abnormal

mortality investigated in

August

• OsHV-1 identified in all

3 areas

• Seed imports in March

– June, but majority

from May – June.

Historical Perspective on OsHV-1

• Found world wide

• Often, but not always, associated with

“summer mortality”

An Emerging Biotype of OsHV-1?

Data from J. F. Pepin, Ifremer 2009

• 2008 - 42% new biotype

• 2009 - 100% new biotype

• OsHV-1 µvar in the past?

• 38 batches of oysters tested from

previous OsHV-1, from USA, Japan,

China, France

• 2009 - 100% new biotype

• OsHV-1 µvar in the past?

• 38 batches of oysters tested from

previous OsHV-1, from USA, Japan,

China, France

• None of these samples displayed the

identical profile to the new biotype

Control Measures

• Controls limited to juveniles from affected

areas?

• Only whilst mortality event causes more

than 15% loss?

• Adult oysters allowed from all areas?

• No notifiable diseases found

Spread of Mortality

• Greater than usual mortalities appear to

be linked to shellfish introductions

• Evidence of spread to naive stock in

same areas

movements for farming/purification

Increased Mortality in the Republic

of Ireland in 2009

• 35 samples from 17 sites

• 31 positive for OsHV-1

• All OsHV-1 µvar

• All positive sites had received

shellfish from France

• Sites that did not receive

French stock were all negative

for OsHV-1Marine Institute data

Increased Mortality in Jersey

Started in June

Affected only Pacific oysters

Up to 68% mortality

Several areas affected

Re-occurred in September

Stock originated from France

Epidemiology reported by Ashley Pinel at

Jersey State Veterinary dept.

Disease Investigation

• Samples from Jersey (mortality event)

• Vibrios found – of significance?

• PCR positive for OsHV in all groups

• When sequenced = OsHV-1 µvar

Initial Survey of England and Wales

• High risk sites sampled

• 3 Mortality events

investigated

• No evidence for OsHV-1
