Russia ministry confirms bird flu outbreak in Far East region of Primorye
- -------------------------------------------------------------------------
Russia's agriculture ministry confirmed a bird flu outbreak in a
village in the Far East region of Primorye which was quarantined
after scores of chickens died.

"In 2 days, 28 out of 42 hens and guinea fowl died on a farm" in the
village of Vozdvizhenka, 110 km [68.3 miles] north of Vladivostok,
the ministry's veterinary control unit said in a statement on
Thursday [10 Apr 2008].

The dead birds had been incinerated, it added. A regional laboratory
made the discovery after testing samples taken from sick birds, and a
national laboratory was due to determine if it was the deadly H5N1
strain of the virus.

Authorities cordoned off the village, killed all other fowl on the
farm and vaccinated birds in the village and nearby areas, the ministry said.
