Vaccinated?

I am not sure, but historically China has had a very aggressive H5N1 vaccination program in poultry.

There were some reports last year of vaccine failure in Chinese manufactured poultry H5N1 vaccine, I believe, from Egypt.

Re: China - Asymptomatic H5N1 Detected in Birds

Since they're not specifying HP H5N1, it could be LP H5N1 or another strain besides H5.

added: since 1/2008, 21 of 23 Avian Chinese samples have been H9N2.
