(13) In the case of detection of infection with low pathogenic avian influenza virus, or in the case of serological evidence of infection, where the presence of the virus cannot be confirmed by virus isolation tests, control measures may differ from those which should apply in the case of detection of highly pathogenic avian influenza virus, taking into account the different levels of risk posed by these two conditions.

Without prejudice to the measures provided for in points (a), (b), (c), (e), (g) and (h) of Article 7(2), the competent authority shall ensure that in cases of serological detection of LPAI or HPAI which cannot be confirmed through virus isolation or PCR tests, appropriate measures are taken, based on risk assessment.

MEASURES TO BE APPLIED IN CASES OF SEROLOGICAL DETECTION OF LPAI OR HPAI WHICH CANNOT BE CONFIRMED THROUGH VIRUS ISOLATION OR POLYMERASE CHAIN REACTION (PCR) TESTS

in the case of viral arteritis, male equidae must - notwithstanding Article 19 (ii) - have reacted negatively to a serological test or to a virus isolation test or to any other test recognized in accordance with the procedure laid down in Article 24 which would guarantee freedom from the virus.
