Avian flu recurs in northern Vietnam
Published: 28/11/2010 05:00
Three hundred ducks in Nam Dinh Province have tested positive for the H1N5 virus, according to Hoang Van Nam, chief of the Department of Animal Health Wednesday. Â
Nam made his announcement a couple of days after Vietnam reported that it hasn’t recorded any avian flu outbreaks, neither in humans nor birds, since July. Â The recurrence signals the return of the epidemic season, according to Nam whose department falls under control of the Ministry of Agriculture and Rural Development. Â Nam urged outbreak monitors nationwide to remain vigilant and to be prepared to mobilize preventative measures, should the virus spread. Â In the meantime, foot-and-mouth disease, a highly contagious and sometimes fatal viral disease hosted by cloven-hoofed animals, has infected cattle populations in seven different provinces, according to Nam.
