  Ghana can't enforce half of the regulations as described by the WHO and EU.
  first; kill all birds that have been in contact or possible direct or indirect contact with the sick birds in a radius of 3 KM.
  ARE YOUR NEIGHBORS WILLING TO DO THAT ?
  Second; All poultry needs to be locked up in a 10 km radius from the outbreak.
  CAN WE DO THAT, we don't have closed stables and cages ?
  second; every individual entering and leaving a place where poultry is, in an affected area needs to be disinfected . CAN WE DO THAT, do we have the capacity for that ?
  Transport of birds, eggs and other products within the 10 km radius is not allowed. CAN WE GUARANTY THAT ?
  are people in the next village prepared not to have chickens or egg to eat ?
