    It is understood that the most important risk factor for H7N9 avian flu virus is the direct or indirect exposure to contaminated live poultry or the environment infected by the sick birds. Surveillance shows that although there were occasional localized cases (2-3 cases per each incident, there was no recurrence cases) occurred, but there is no evidence that H7N9 virus can continue to "human to human transmission."
    At present, Shijiazhuang City, a number of farmers markets have already put posters to prevent H7N9 virus in the eye-catching position, and there are live poultry sales stalls for normal business, the people?s attitude toward the poultry products is kept rational.
    Experts recommend that people buy white or cold poultry, try to avoid direct contact with live poultry; poultry farming, slaughter or related practitioners should do personal protection well. If anyone have fever after contacting live birds, go to the hospital as soon as possible and explain the doctor(s) about bird contact history.
