In response, the Ministry quarantined all coops within 10 km of the outbreak and instructed the public to buy poultry meat and eggs only at regulated sales places.
Avoid buying unmarked and unpackaged eggs and consume the meat and eggs only cooked, Xinhua news agency reported.

It also called on breeders to keep birds indoors to reduce the risk of infection from wild birds.
