CONCLUSI ONS • Currently, Chile is working on a twinning project with the OIE in relation to Newcastle and Aviar Influenza viruses. The objective is to increase lab security. • We keep an updated registry of all labs (universitis, private labs, etc.) handling risky strains. They must inform the SAG about their use and handling. • We have a biotechnology lab. • It belongs to BIOGIB group, an Iberoamerican group dedicated to Biosafety.
