Thailand says clear of bird flu, battling cholera

BANGKOK - Thailand, one of the world's biggest chicken producers, is free of bird flu but is battling an outbreak of cholera in its poultry industry, a senior disease control official said on Tuesday.

"I would like to insist that Thailand is free of bird flu," Nirundorn Aungtragoolsuk, director of the Agriculture Ministry's Livestock Disease Control Division, told Reuters.

He said the government had destroyed hundreds of thousands of chickens since November to stop the spread of a virulent strain of poultry cholera.
