C As China faces up to a battle against bird flu.the government has announced a lot of measures that it believes will bring the disease under contro1. H5Nl avian influenza.known commonly as bird f1u. has killed at least 16 people across Asia and was proved in China on January 27. No human cases have been found in the mainland.but till Friday, 13 areas of the country had reported the disease in poultry. ``It remains a difficult task for China to prevent and control the disease but the government is sure to win the fight. said Vice-Minister of Agriculture Liu Jiang. He gave detai1s of measures designed to stop the d1sease spread1ng. Poultry within 3 km of infectedfarms is to be killed and those within 5 km vaccinated. Meanwhile.there will be continuing checking and daily reports on the disease across the country. and increased production of bird flu vaccines. Among the 11 Asian countries and areas affected by bird flu in anima1s. only Viet Nam and Thailand have reported human cases. The people infected were reported to have caught the disease from poultry. While the World Health Organizationhas said there is “no evidence of human-to-human spread of bird flu.it admitted that two sisters who died of bird f1u in Viet Nam might have caught it from their brother. The big fear is that the disease could connect with a human influenza virus to create a deadly new disease that kills millions of people throughout the world. Peter Cordingley.spokesman of the WHO.said that Asian countries affected by bird flu should introduce a more healthy way of raising and selling chickens.and many experts think highly of it. Many Chinese farmers live close with their animals and sell 1ive chickens On the market. This greatly increases the possibility of humans being infected with bird flu. “They have to completely change their lifestyle.’’he said.
