BEIJING, Jan 29 (Reuters) - La Chine a d?tect? l'apparition de la souche H5N1 hautement pathog?ne de la grippe aviaire dans les volailles du Tibet, un site Web du gouvernement a d?clar? ce mardi.

"Le Conseil national de la grippe aviaire, le laboratoire de r?f?rence a confirm? comme un sous-type de virus de la souche H5N1," il a dit.
Avec la plus grande du monde population de volailles et des centaines de millions d'agriculteurs ?lever les oiseaux dans leurs arri?re-cours, la Chine est consid?r?e comme cruciale dans la lutte mondiale contre la grippe aviaire.
Les ?pid?miologistes craignent la souche H5N1, qui reste essentiellement une maladie animale, mais a infect? l'homme, pourrait muter en une forme facilement qu'elle se propage chez les gens.
M?dias d'Etat a indiqu? au d?but de ce mois qu'un total de 4850 volailles ?taient mortes de la souche H5N1 de la grippe aviaire dans Turpan, dans le Xinjiang, depuis le 29 D?cembre, ce qui a incit? les autorit?s ? l'abattage de 29383 autres oiseaux.
La grippe aviaire se propage plus rapidement dans le temps frisquet. (Signalement par P?kin newsroom; Modification de Lucy Hornby et Alex Richardson)

China reports bird flu outbreak in poultry in Tibet

BEIJING, Jan 29 (Reuters) - China has detected an outbreak of the highly pathogenic H5N1 strain of bird flu in poultry in Tibet, a government Web site said on Tuesday.
A total of 1,000 poultry have died of the disease in Gonggan county since Jan. 25, while another 13,080 have been culled, the Ministry of Agriculture said on its Web site (http://www.agri.gov.cn).
"The National Avian Influenza Reference Laboratory confirmed the virus as a subtype of the H5N1 strain," it said.
With the world's biggest poultry population and hundreds of millions of farmers raising birds in their backyards, China is seen as crucial in the global fight against bird flu.
Epidemiologists fear the H5N1 strain, which remains mainly an animal disease but has infected humans, could mutate to a form that it spreads easily among people.
State media reported earlier this month that a total of 4,850 poultry had died of the H5N1 strain of bird flu in Turpan, in Xinjiang, since Dec. 29, prompting authorities there to cull another 29,383 birds.
Bird flu spreads fastest in chilly weather. (Reporting by Beijing newsroom; Editing by Lucy Hornby and Alex Richardson)

BEIJING -- China's agricultural authorities Tuesday reported an outbreak of bird flu in Tibet near the regional capital of Lhasa, state media said. The outbreak of the deadly H5N1 strain of avian influenza occurred in Tibet's Gongga county, Xinhua news agency said, citing the China National Bird Flu Reference Laboratory.
The outbreak had been suspected as of January 25, but only confirmed by the laboratory on Tuesday, it said.
Experts have been dispatched to the county, which lies about 50 kilometers (31 miles) south of Lhasa.
Local health officials have been ordered to take measures to stop the outbreak from spreading, the report said.
No details of the outbreak, such as how many birds and farms were affected, were given.
China remains on alert for frequent occurrences of bird flu which has so far infected at least 27 people in the country, 17 of whom died.
Last week, health authorities warned of an increased risk of animal-related health epidemics during the Lunar New Year holiday that begins on February 7, saying many local governments were not prepared.
The heightened risk in a country prone to animal diseases stems from the massive numbers of travellers and livestock expected to be transported around the country for China's biggest holiday, press reports said.
H5N1 has killed more than 200 people and ravaged poultry flocks worldwide since 2003, according to the World Health Organization.

H5N1 Confirmed in Southern Tibet

Recombinomics Commentary 13:34
January 29, 2008

A total of 1,000 poultry have died of the disease in Gonggan county since Jan. 25, while another 13,080 have been culled, the Ministry of Agriculture

The outbreak had been suspected as of January 25, but only confirmed by the laboratory on Tuesday, it said.

Experts have been dispatched to the county, which lies about 50 kilometers (31 miles) south of Lhasa.

The above comments describe a confirmed H5N1 outbreak in southern Tibet, just north of India and Bangladesh (see satellite map here and here). The movement of wild birds from Siberia, Mongolia, and China into northern India is well documented. Thus, the presence of H5N1 just north of India is not a surprise.

Sequences from the 2006 outbreak in India have been published, and the sequences were the Qinghai strain (clade 2.2.3), which was first reported at Qinghai Lake in central China in the spring of 2005 and in Qinghia province in the spring of 2006. In addition, the Uva Lake strain, a variant of clade 2.2.3 was reported at Uva Lake, the largest lake in Mongolia.

The arrival of these birds in India and Bangladesh is not a surprise.

Sequence data from the recent outbreaks in India, Bangladesh, and Pakistan would be useful.
