H5N1 Infection of Veterinarian in Mongolia
Recombinomics Commentary
October 22, 2006

A scientist, who conducted researched at Ulaanbaatar agricultural university veterinary clinic, has become infected with bird flu. On October 23, the Onoodor periodical informs that Mongolian emergency ministry refuses to release any additional information; however, as it became known to the press, the scientist became infected a week ago.

The researcher was hospitalized with high temperature. As National Infectious Disease Center director Mendbayar Altanhuu stressed, preliminary analysis confirmed that the man had the avian flu virus.

The above translation suggests that the first human H5N1 case in Mongolia has been detected. It is not clear if the infection was linked to a lab procedure by the veterinarian/scientist, or was acquired through proximity to infected birds. Earlier media reports described a massive outbreak of H5N1 in Tuva and adjacent areas in Mongolia. Several Qinghai sequences from isolates in Tuva and Mongolia have been released.

However, reported human cases of the Qinghai H5N1 infections have been limited to Turkey, Iraq, Azerbaijan, Egypt, and Djibouti.

If confirmed, this would be the first human H5N1 case in Mongolia.

Kent, I don't know about Mongolia, but they're vaccinating all the poultry in Inner Mongolia right now. It's possible that it's in reaction to news--such as this one, for he was hospitalized a week ago, and he might have incubated the virus for a week. So something may have been going on in this area for a while, at which time they started their vaccination program.

All domestic fowls inoculated in Inner Mongolia for bird flu prevention 23/10/2006 10:30

A total of 42.6 million domestic fowls in north China's Inner Mongolia Autonomous Region have received compulsory inoculations following an outbreak of bird flu in the region last month, according to local authorities.

The inoculation rate has reached 100 percent in the autonomous region, said the Inner Mongolian Autonomous Regional Bird Flu Control Headquarters Office.

Nearly 1,000 chickens and ducks were reported to have died suddenly on a poultry farm in the Xincheng Village of Jiuyuan District in Baotou City on September 27. The national avian influenza laboratory later confirmed that the H5N1 virus was found in samples of the dead poultry. About 30,000 fowls within three kilometers of the farm were subsequently slaughtered. No human infections were found.

Three million domestic fowls in Baotou had been inoculated by October 11. Poultry and egg products from the bird flu-stricken areas were not put on sale.

Two outbreaks of bird flu have been reported since last month, which killed around 2,000 domestic poultry in the autonomous regions of Inner Mongolia and Ningxia Hui..

Inner Mongolia is in China. I was looking for location

I know. That's why I said, "I don't know about Mongolia, but they're vaccinating all the poultry in Inner Mongolia right now". They're neighbors. Anyway, map of recent outbreaks attached.
