Bird flu in chickens causes panic among consumers in Romania
Bird flu in chickens causes panic among consumers in Romania
AFP
May 15, 2006
Romanian health authorities were looking for several dozen tonnes of chicken product from a site where bird flu was found, striking fear among consumers.
The deadly H5N1 strain of the flu was found at a farm in Codlea in central Romania over the weekend and may have contaminated chicken products shipped to supermarkets.
The scare comes as the eastern European country awaits a decision Tuesday from Brussels about joining the European Union with EU officials already worried about food safety in Romania.
Four tonnes of chicken product that may be contaminated with bird flu have been seized over the past 24 hours in several supermarkets in Bucharest, including one run by the French-Belgian Cora group, health officials said.
