Malaysian Ducks Free From Bird Flu

Ducks in Malaysia are not infected with bird flu. 

Agriculture and Agro-Based Industries Minister Tan Sri Muhyiddin Yassin has been quoted as saying that there were no cases of H5 virus found in ducks in the Kelantan state.

A new discovery of bird flu was recently detected among poultry in a village in the Malaysian state.
