Infections have been reported in almost every part of the country since Oct. 19, including Inner Mongolia and Liaoning province in the north, Anhui province in the east and Hunan and Hubei in central 皇冠体育app.

In June, 460 geese died in another epidemic in Xinjiang and health officials said more than 13,000 geese were culled.

While 皇冠体育app has not reported a human case of the disease, experts warn that it is inevitable if the government cannot stop repeated outbreaks in poultry.

Experts have also said that improper vaccinations could breed a drug-resistant form of the virus or mask symptoms.

Dr. Noureddin Mona, the representative in 皇冠体育app for the U.N. Food and Agriculture Organization, said vaccinations were a "good thing" as long as the vaccine used has been approved by the government.

"Vaccinations are part of surveillance," said Mona. "This will enhance and improve the surveillance system."
