Hypothetical mixing of avian flu viruses from east Asia
migratory birds and east China ducks and chickens.
Animal and environment testing

Since 20th Mar, animal facilities around human
cases in Anhui, Jiangsu and Shanghai had been
checked, with no animal illness found.

Until 3rd Apr, agricultural departments of
Shanghai, Jiangsu, Zhejiang, and Anhui did not
have specific testing agents for H7N9.
Animal and environment testing

As of 16th Apr, provincial and national AI
reference laboratories had collected a total of
84444 samples, covering 473 live poultry
markets, 32 slaughterhouses, 896 farms, 79 wild
bird habitats, 36 pig slaughterhouses, and 137
environmental sampling spots. Tests for 47801
samples had been concluded, yielding only 39
positive results (0.05%), of which 38 were poultry
and environment samples from live markets of
Shanghai, Anhui, Zhejiang and Jiangsu, 1 was
from wild pigeon from Nanjing, Jiangsu.

Ducks along the bank of Changjiang river
may be all infected
Source of H7N9 virus may be the migratory birds
in Changjiang river mouth
H7N9 continuously evolves, hard to predict risk
The virus is still searching for a more compatible combination
Risk assessment
1.
The reassortment of avian influenza viruses had
occurred, probably in East China
2.
The reassorted virus massively go across the
animal-human boundary to infect human
3.
The virus is low pathogenic for birds and highly
pathogenic for human
4.
Up to the moment, there is no evidence that the virus
further go across the boundary to sustained humanto-human transmission, though limited human-tohuman transmission can not be excluded

Avian disease surveillance,
prevention and control
Minimizing human exposure
Detection and isolation of
human cases
Ensuring care for patients
Slowing down spread
Risk assessment
5.
It is probably that the virus spreads beyond East
China to Central and North China by migratory birds,
which infect local Poultry and the latter infect human
6.
Comparing with H5N1, H7N9 infection in poultry
seems more widespread and persistent, constituting
a greater threat for human
7.
At this moment, it is impossible to precisely predict
if the virus will come to Macao, or how (birds or
human?), but preparedness is necessary
Animal-animal line of defense

Separate poultry with migratory birds and wild
birds

Separate water fowls and land fowls

Separate poultry from different regions

Separate infected poultry with other poultry
Significant measures taken in Macao

All local poultry farms eliminated

Raising poultry prohibited

Importation of live water fowls prohibited

Management in the source, surveillance,
separation, and double quarantine for poultry
provided from inland to Macao

Culling of all live poultry before the live markets
close everyday
Animal-human line of defense

Biosafety measures for poultry industry. In case
of animal epidemic, handling infected poultry
under strict protection

General people avoiding contact with live poultry
or presenting in places with live poultry, washing
hands after contact with raw poultry meat or egg,
eating poultry meat or eggs thoroughly cooked

According to situational, government adopting
appropriate risk management measures in sites
for poultry wholesale, sale, or watching
Human-human line of defense

Raising people’s alert for prompt seeking medical
advice if severe acute respiratory illness develops

Raising HCW alert, strengthening surveillance
system, building laboratory capacity, testing acute
respiratory patients with travel, poultry or patient
contact history, and patients with pneumonia of
unknown cause, for early detection of cases

Strengthening infection control in medical facilities.
Early isolation and treatment of detected cases

Tracing and health management of close contacts of
cases
