Temperature Checks to Resume in Shenzhen

The Shenzhen and Zhuhai checkpoints are required by the General Administration of Quality Supervision, Inspection and Quarantine to start soon testing the body temperature of all travelers.

 

Passengers will be required to fill out health information forms.

 

A spokesman for the Hong Kong Department of Health said Wednesday that the checking of temperature at the Lo Wu and Lok Ma Chau border crossings will be re-activated Friday.

 

The Ministry of Health confirmed two human cases and one suspected case of H5N1 bird flu.

 

The two confirmed cases are a 9-year-old boy in Xiangtan County of Hunan Province and a 24-year-old woman in Zongyang County of Anhui Province.

 

The boy has been discharged from hospital after recovery while the woman died Nov. 10.

 

Meanwhile, the ministry reported that the boy’s 12-year-old sister, who had similar symptoms and died Oct. 17, was a suspected human case of bird flu.

 

The suspicion could not be confirmed using the standards of the World Health Organization (WHO) due to insufficient evidence from laboratory tests, said the ministry Wednesday.
