However, several questions remained. For example, it was hard to tell how widely spread this virus was in all the poultry since it did not make the birds sick.<\/p>\n<blockquote id=\"3ffc\" class=\"graf graf--blockquote graf-after--p\"><p>The concern is that the virus might mutate to become more easily transmitted from person to person, which would cause an epidemic.<\/p><\/blockquote>\n<p id=\"2ecc\" class=\"graf graf--p graf-after--blockquote\">The person involved in this new case in Hong Kong had contact with poultry, suggesting that the virus has not been entirely eradicated from poultry by the market controls imposed previously by the Chinese Government. As yet there is no evidence of human-to-human transmission of infection associated with this patient, but it is too early to confirm this.<\/p>\n<p id=\"485d\" class=\"graf graf--p graf-after--p\">This virus (H7N9) should not be confused with the MERS coronavirus in the Middle East. It is totally unrelated.<\/p>\n<blockquote id=\"b795\" class=\"graf graf--blockquote graf-after--p graf--trailing\"><p>For travellers to Hong Kong and China, the best advice is to avoid visiting the live poultry markets and to practice good flu prevention, i.e., wash your hands frequently.<\/p><\/blockquote>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Return of H7N9 bird flu strain in\u00a0China The first human case of avian influenza H7N9 in Hong Kong has just been reported.
