| September 25, 2008 | | Avian flu | Thai poultry imports resume
| Hong Kong has resumed importing poultry meat and products from Thailand as the country has taken control measures and no more avian flu cases have been reported, the Centre for Food Safety said today.
It suspended import applications in view of the country's highly pathogenic avian influenza situation in January 2004.
The country regained its highly pathogenic avian influenza free status with the World Organisation for Animal Health in April. :tiphat: http://www.news.gov.hk/en/category/healthandcommunity/080925/txt/080925en05010.htm |
No more have been reported? There is a report from just a couple months ago of dead birds and human suspects, although the humans were claimed negative :rolleyes:... from this thread :tiphat: http://www.flutrackers.com/forum/showthread.php?t=75432
