After the dangerous bird flu virus was detected Wednesday in chickens available for sale at a local market in Hong Kong, officials reported they plan to slaughter all live poultry in area street markets. Tests Wednesday confirmed birds from four markets were infected with the H5N1 avian influenza virus, or bird flu virus. Poultry from local chicken farms and distribution centers were also tested, but were not infected. Exact numbers were not available of how many birds would be slaughtered. More than 2,700 chickens were killed Saturday after routine testing in a market showed five chickens were infected with the virus. According to the World Health Organization, the avian influenza virus is highly contagious among poultry. Human infections of the H5N1 avian influenza virus are rare, but have occurred from direct contact with diseased poultry.
