イラン・デイリーから続報。
イランの鳥インフルエンザ、H5N1確定です。
ガチョウ・アヒル・家禽に検出。
検体はイタリアの検査機関に運ばれて検査されました。
オヤ?と思ったのは最後の2行。
インドネシアとイランでワクチンの共同生産が行われるとか・・・
こういうものは途上国の方がどんどん作れて手に入る(日本のようにウルサ型の厚労省がアレコレ言わない)ので案外有利かもしれません。
It was reported last week that Indonesia and Iran reached a tentative deal to co-produce bird flu vaccines.

Bird Flu Cases Detected
State Veterinary Organization has announced that migratory and indigenous birds have tested positive for H5N1 bird flu virus.
“Avian flu, earlier reported for migratory swans in the Anzali International Wetland in northern Iran, has been detected among geese, ducks and domestic hens in Barzanghib village near the wetland,“ the Organization’s chief, Mojtaba Norouzi told ISNA Friday.
“Laboratory tests in Italy confirmed that Iran’s wild and native birds had been infected by the H5N1 bird flu virus.“
The Organization culled domestic birds of the village to prevent the outbreak of the deadly virus in the vicinity of the wetland, he said, urging locals to avoid hunting.
H5N1 is the bird flu strain that scientists worry could mutate into a form easily passed to humans.
With thousands of migratory geese, ducks and other wildfowl heading for the province for the winter, local authorities are on high alert, he said.
The official had earlier told the news agency that the organization destroys any poultry in places where birds have been detected with suspicious respiratory diseases.
Iran had officially announced an outbreak of bird flu among migratory birds in late 2005.
It was reported last week that Indonesia and Iran reached a tentative deal to co-produce bird flu vaccines.
