Hi, Sharon-san! Long time no see you!
(Since I am now fighting for recovering the lost USB-memory data for these three months, my checking network news is lesser and lesser...)

Today, Hunan province announced another new outbreak of H5N6 among poultry.
I happened to know this by chance when I was checking Tencent news!
