Hi Captain,

Thanks for your information!

According to WHO website (http://www.who.int/csr/disease/a ... /index.html#whatare): "The highly pathogenic form is far more dramatic. It spreads very rapidly through poultry flocks, causes disease affecting multiple internal organs, and has a mortality that can approach 100%, often within 48 hours.", so I think the bird maybe infected by another H5N1 source.
