Taiwan CDC: no birds have tested positive for H5N1 in Taiwan.

From a press release (or at least I think that's what this is...)

CDC INSISTS NO TAIWAN BIRDS INFECTED WITH H5N1

2005-11-15 23:22:03

Taipei, Nov. 15 (CNA) No bird in Taiwan has so far tested positive for H5N1, the most virulent strain of avian flu, the Center for Disease Control (CDC) under the Department of Health said Tuesday.

I noted this previously, but will reiterate.  The birds from Taiwan must have contacted other, infected birds en route at some point.  Who knows where those birds are now?
