China seals off quake town over epidemic fears: report
One of the towns worst hit in last month's devastating China earthquake has been sealed off to prevent epidemics from spreading, after having been opened just briefly, state media said Saturday.

More than 600 police officers have been posted around southwest China's Beichuan town, which was nearly flattened in the May 12 quake, to prevent anyone from entering, Xinhua news agency reported.

Tan Jiamin, Beichuan county's head of police, said the empty city would remain closed down for "a long time" because the rising temperatures increased the risk of epidemics, according to Xinhua.

Beichuan, a town of about 12,000 which lost half its residents in the disaster according to Xinhua, was reopened only recently.

The move was to allow people to go back to their former homes to find vital possessions left behind after last month's quake.

However, the chaotic scenes that followed once the town was reopened forced authorities to close it down again.

"Some local residents were digging for their family members with their bare hands, which can easily cause infection," Tan told Xinhua.

Contaminated carcasses could trigger diseases like avian influenza, encephalitis B and rabies, while the earthquake may also heighten the risk of infection of anthrax or tetanus, earlier reports said.

The death toll from the earthquake, China's most lethal in a generation, stood at 69,186 as of Friday noon, while 18,457 were counted as missing, according to Xinhua.

Re: Beichuan County, the city re-closure management to effectively prevent the spread of the disease

is it credible ?
remember the effectmeasure thread about dead bodies _not_

There could be another reason, some secret military or chemical
factory or such ?

After the outbreak Chun-county Beichuan threat of closure again City

[大纪元June 28 - (AP AP)-North County, Sichuan Public Security Bureau issued a notice, from June 26 onwards, the North-county implementation of the management re-closed. This is since May 20 the first closure of the city after the second closure City measure, saying it is to prevent the spread of the disease. Analysts pointed out that the epidemic has apparently occurred, it is now to prevent its spread.

According to "Beijing News" reported, from Mianyang, and the field more than 600 police officers will guard day and night through such means, except with special permits quarantine, public security personnel and vehicles, no other personnel entering and leaving the north-county.
June 20 had been lifted the previous letters to the city, some of the north-county residents continue to return to their homes in the earthquake rubble to find survivors in the final 1:00 Jiadang. On the 26th sealed the city again, they were also banned from entering the county.

At 0:00 on the 26th, the vaccination needs of the north-county in Sichuan closure City of martial law again. Mianyang City Party Committee Propaganda Department official said, relevant, the city will continue long closure for a period of time, the current hot weather, the city's heavy body odour, flies mosquito has emerged, to the epidemic prevention difficult. In addition, some residents of unarmed Quwa under the ruins of their loved ones, this can easily infected.

City the day before the closure, the county still a large number of residents moving out furniture and other items, including one young man also sought to transfer from the ruins of his car. Some of the people carrying goods from nearby hillside, a long time refuse to leave, there are people in front of the county in the direction shouted: "Good-bye, the North River."

North-county seat of Qu Town, encountered Miedingzhizai, 12,000 people reported dead, missing, more than 1,500 people. North-old town was the huge landslides buried all of the mountain, the destruction of most of the new city, heavy casualties, particularly in kindergartens, primary and secondary schools, vocational school students mainly. North-county redevelopment will be different localities, the county seat of the ruins will be retained for the earthquake memorial.

56 years ago the Chinese Communists to the north-county migration of deaths

People are accustomed to the north-north-county is located in the northwest more than 20 km outside the city administration, known as the "old county town." 1992, the city administration because of the "Dayu Culture", changed its name to the present, Yu. AD 566, Northern Zhou regime that is, for this county, located north county, and the continuation of the Millennium. Yu lying in the open, flattening the mountain, in this earthquake did not appear in the mountain landslide, but only by the subsequent flooding of hardship and have enough time to escape, rather than the song rocks covered mountain top is obviously a relatively safe county Place, but it was the Chinese communists in 1952, suddenly abandoned.

Zhonggongjianzheng shortly after the September 1952, the North-rule city from the county seat moved to the mountains in the music site. 1952, the North-the county has more than 70,000 population, and the song is a mountain only a population of less than 500, a small town, its adverse geological conditions difficult to determine their long-term large-scale development. "Beichuan County Zhi", there is no reason for the relocation of a clear record.

According to a local source revealed that the elderly, Zhonggongjianzheng the beginning, the North-county party as usual in the city administration, was the main leadership of the county are mostly illiterate and functionally illiterate Tuba Lu, the lack of scientific knowledge, nor respect for intellectuals, the Chinese Communists Leading cadres to meet Mianyang, suspected of governance City Road far, nearly one point in order to save time and effort, the county decided to move to Town song.

Qu Hill and around County and Jiangyou, transport more convenient. Zhonggongjianzheng early, Sichuan around the activities of armed resistance against the despotic rule, it was said that the event of a song-critical situation, can be faster than the city administration to get support. The site did not take into account factors such as geological conditions, such as the North-who was dragged into a death trap, the Chinese Communists have avoided this "historic mistake."

Local Sichuan Basin dropped 60 centimeters <br> <br> China Seismological Bureau director of the Institute of Geological Zhang Zhen said that on the 26th, Sichuan earthquake caused large area of surface deformation. Longmenshan and Sichuan Basin in addition to the horizontal direction on a substantial movement in both directions, Longmenshan substantially increased.

The relative decline in the Sichuan Basin, along the decline in the Longmenshan County, the Dujiangyan area's largest, reaching 30 to 60 cm, east quickly become smaller, but the area of Chongqing to show up a few millimetres, but larger error.

Missing 3-year declared dead

Re: Beichuan County, the city re-closure management to effectively prevent the spread of the disease

In the case of avian flu the disease may have been endemic in some livestock and those dead bodies could be a source of further infection. (ie stray dogs, cats etc feeding on possibly infected dead pigs) By encephalitis B, they appear to mean Japanese encephalitis, http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Japanese_Encephalitis , which could be exacerbated by increased pools of water leading to increased mosquito problems. Tetanus could just be from many more chances for open wounds with all the destruction. If any of these problems such as rabies, anthrax, avian flu were there to start with the disruption and lack of control measures could serve to amplify them.
 
Re: Beichuan County, the city re-closure management to effectively prevent the spread of the disease

I never thought about getting rabies from dead animals. Remember when China killed all those dogs in an attempt to eliminate rabies? Here is from New York State Dept. of Conservation:

How long will the rabies virus remain alive in the body of a dead animal?

The length of time that rabies remains alive in a dead animal depends primarily on the outside temperature. The virus could die within a few hours in warm weather and could stay alive for months in freezing temperatures.

Could my dog or cat get rabies from a dead animal that had rabies?

Yes, through an open wound or by chewing on the carcass. Have your vet administer a booster shot within five days. If your pet is unvaccinated, it must be confined for four months, or euthanized. You're not always going to know what your pet has been up to while outside, so the best protection for both your pet and your family is for you to keep your pet current with its rabies shots.

Re: Beichuan County, the city re-closure management to effectively prevent the spread of the disease

First, remove chicken farm ruins, but also victims in a clean living environment
Jeju is widely Mianzhu City, southwest edge of a Zhenxiang, suffered damage in the quake, large homes, shocking situation, the economic loss is very serious, but also focus on post-disaster disease prevention and control. Vaccination teams in the new village group carried out 13 inspections Disease Prevention found that flies with more surprisingly, Yuankan like bees to beat as one, a short while will be automotive glass are covered with climbing. With occupational disease control staff seriously sensitive inspections, found near a large-scale chicken farms, covering an area of about five acres, Yang Chun-before a 10,005 over 1000 chickens on poultry. All poultry farms earthquake razed to rubble, nearly 10,000 chickens in poultry were killed in the collapse of the brick. As roads damaged, has not been able to clear the ruins, with the hot climate, buried in the ruins of a large number of dead birds rot, issued Yixiu, seriously affecting the lives of nearby villagers. If we do not clean up as soon as possible, may become a source of environmental health disaster area. Mianzhu City, the news reached epidemic prevention and control headquarters (city CDC), the Provincial CDC deputy director Yang and Wang Xiaoping, director of CDC Mianzhu clearly make a decision, be sure to overcome difficulties and to take measures to poultry farms The elimination of the ruins, to avoid the occurrence of the disease.
