16/02/2006
Hungary has become the seventh country to confirm an outbreak of the bird flu virus.
Hungarian authorities detected an H5 subtype of virus in three dead wild swans in the southern county of Bacs Kiskun, the EU commission said yesterday.
Tests are being undertaken now at the EU's reference laboratory to determine whether the virus is the H5N1 strain that can infect and kill people.
