Folks in the UK will probably have heard that we have a case of low
pathogenic avian influenza H7N2 in Wales
Unfortunately it seems that the birds that were affected were bought at an
auction market in Cheshire. Certainly not what anyone would want.

The Department for Environment, Food and Rural Affairs (Defra) would like to
hear from anyone - who has not already been contacted - who purchased from
or supplied to Chelford Market, Cheshire on 7 May, or any poultry keeper who
visited Chelford Market on that day whose birds have subsequently become
ill.
They are asked to contact their local Animal Health Office or the Defra
helpline 08459 33 55 77. Lines are open between 0900 BST - 1700 BST seven
days a week.
