"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. --Reuters 2004-01-13 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
