State media reports outbreak of bird flu in China http://apocadocs.com/s.pl?1205730693

The outbreak occurred in a market in Guangzhou, in Guangdong province on Thursday, and was a "highly pathogenic" subtype of the H5N1 influenza virus, which can be deadly to humans, the report said. A further 500 birds were culled and the disease was under control after emergency measures were taken.
