This news photo from the Worldjournal.com reported about the outbreak of H7N9 avian influenza cases in Zhejiang. People were shocked by the human transmission cases. Therefore, the Chinese Government is vigilant at all times to prevent further spread of the diseases. Everyone stays alert to maintain the hygiene especially from the source, i.e. the poultry markets. Poultry were culled massively to ensure the citizens’ health safety in January 2014.
From the photo, we can see that there are lots of people wearing protective coat, safety goggles with masks over their faces. They are comprehensively covered to avoid any contact with the chickens nearby. Hundred Thousands of chicken were culled.
I create this photo caption because the viruses from the poultry are so dangerous that can easily transmitted from avian to human being. The virus keeps on changing all the time and may even have mutation. Therefore, the only solution to kill the virus is to kill the poultry. Therefore, trade of live poultry must be banned in Hong Kong. And the caption “ Only One of Us Will Survive” explained that if human being want to control H7N9 disease, the most effective measure is to kill the live poultry to suspend any direct access between human being and poultry. This can cure the disease instead of the symptoms.
