H5N1 bird flu confirmed in Azerbaijan 10/02/2006 - 07:46:14 The Health Ministry today said a London laboratory had confirmed the presence of H5N1 avian flu in dead birds from Azerbaijan’s Caspian Sea coast. Private television channels urged viewers not to prepare poultry dishes and broadcast descriptions of bird flu symptoms, while the Health and Agriculture Ministries appealed to people to avoid contact with foul and to isolate domestic poultry from wild birds. Part of Azerbaijan shares a short border with eastern Turkey, where four children died after becoming infected with the deadly H5N1 strain of bird flu. http://www.breakingnews.ie/2006/02/10/story244001.html * This country didn't have a folder. Could we have more folders? Maybe call it Central Asia, something for all the countries with too many consonants - that no one can pronounce. |
