09:45: Bird flu death in China

on 31/12/2011 09:45:13

A man has died from bird flu in Southern China, it has emerged.

It is the first case of the virus in more than 18 months.

Positive tests on a dead market chicken last week prompted nearby Hong Kong's government to issue an alert.

The island's authorities culled 17,000 chickens after three birds were confirmed to have died from the H5N1 bird flu strain.

It is still not yet clear whether the chickens came from a local farm or if they were imported.
