Hong Kong poultry stall suspended for disinfection after bird flu trace detected
A poultry stall in Hong Kong's Wo Che Market was temporarily suspended for disinfection after an environmental sample tested positive for the H9 bird flu virus. This action followed the confirmation of a two-year-old boy contracting H9N2 after visiting the market. Despite the detection, shoppers expressed little concern, with some vendors noting a slight decrease in foot traffic but not taking significant personal precautions. AI
