Japan Confirms Deadly bird flu Bird Flu Strain in new Outbreak
Japan confirmed Saturday that its latest outbreak of bird flu
was caused by the H5N1 strain which is potentially deadly to humans.
The result of detailed testing came after the government
ordered all 52,500 chickens on the infected farm to be culled and imposed a
10-kilometer (six-mile) quarantine zone.
At least 1,300 chickens were reported dead from the outbreak
in the town of Hyuga, in the southern prefecture of Miyazaki, as of Thursday.
The case was in the same province as a previous outbreak,
confirmed on January 13 and later found to be H5N1.
In the earlier case, some 3,900 chickens were found
dead on a farm, prompting authorities to slaughter the remaining 8,100 birds to
contain the virus.
The agricultural ministry and local authorities are
investigating if the two cases are linked.
Japan confirmed an outbreak of the H5N1 strain of bird
flu in January 2004. Since then, the nation saw several cases of outbreaks with
the H5N1 strain as well as outbreaks with the less serious H5N2 virus.
