I generally do not post this weekly summary report because it gives very little detail and the time frame overlaps with the very excellent Avian Influenza Weekly Report that is published with case details. The next avian influenza report is due April 25 and should give some insight to the below data. We have listed some of the below cases and some are new. Also due out next week is the very, VERY excellent periodic FAO H7N9 report.
I can't do anything with the below information. Some of it appears contradictory to local city/provincial reports.

The Centre for Health Protection (CHP) of the Department of Health today (April 21) received notification from the National Health and Family Planning Commission that 27 additional human cases of avian influenza A(H7N9), including seven deaths, were recorded from April 14 to 20, and strongly urged the public to maintain strict personal, food and environmental hygiene both locally and during travel.
