China is giving large scale vaccination on poultry, said Jia Youling,
China's Chief Veterinary Officer, on Friday.
"Not all poultry in China
have been vaccinated, but in key areas, poultry have received vaccination.
Poultry vaccinated have the capability to resist the infection of bird flu,"
said Jia at a press conference held by the Information Office of the State
Council.
Jia said that the state and local governments will jointly pay for
the vaccination in key areas, but he admitted that so far, the state has not
fully paid all this year's vaccination fees.
