H7N9禽流感跨国界传播的忧虑

H7N9禽流感跨国界传播的忧虑1

WITH another death in China from the new strain of bird flu, a UN organization has expressed concern that the virus could spread across borders in poultry.

随着中国又有一人死于新的禽流感病毒，一个联合国组织已经表示担心病毒在家禽中传播会跨越国界。

Ten people infected with the H7N9 virus have now died in China.

中国目前有十个感染H7N9病毒的人死亡。

The exact source of infection remains unknown, though samples have tested positive in some birds in poultry markets that remain the focus of investigations by China and the UN's Food and Agriculture Organization.

确切的感染源还是未知，尽管在家禽市场一些鸟类样本测试为阳性仍然是中国和联合国粮食和农业组织调查的焦点。

Speaking in Bangkok, the FAO's Subhash Morzaria said: "This particular region is land linked and so there is a possibility that if, inadvertently or advertently, somebody moves infected poultry across borders we can anticipate the spread of this virus."

在曼谷的演讲中，粮农组织的Subhash Morzaria说:“这片特别的区域国土相连，万一有人无意或有意跨越国界地转移受感染的家禽，我们可以预见这种病毒的传播。”

Morzaria added: "We are proactively initiating surveillance programs in neighboring countries like Myanmar, Laos and Vietnam which border China and are at particular risk and we are trying to understand how the poultry movement has taken place so we can identify more accurately where the risk is going to be."
