    Bird flu website offers latest news updates

    The avian flu website www.gov.hk/info/flu has been updated with a Really Simple Syndication application to allow subscribers receive automatically the latest news updates on avian flu via their personal computers, smart phones or personal digital devices.

     

    The website provides comprehensive up-to-date information on avian flu, including Government news on preventive measures, health advice and global statistics. Clear guidelines on practical measures are also available so the public can avoid contracting both influenza and the more serious strain of avian flu.
