    Considering the H5N6 cases in the last two weeks in Guangdong Province and recently the H7N9 case confirmed in Jieyang City, better warnings of vigilance should have been posted prior to China CDC's confirmation from Jiangxi HFPC .

    IHR guidelines Hmmmm..... public situation awareness is paramount for vigilance!

    3 weeks later is not good enough!
