Avian flu recurs in northern Vietnam

Via Thanh Nien News :

" 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.

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.

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."
