        It would be intersting to see how this incident will evolve.

        No one wants to answer a simple question: has H5N1 disappeared from China?

        I asked to several people on Twitter (G_Hartl, M. Koopmans, etc.) but no one replied.

        If they have been performing so many poultry tests, why were they not able to detect a single H5N1 positive sample? Or found a dead chicken in the vast territory they are searching?

        And if VN will confirm an H7N9 positive poultry, what kind of test had they used?
