A Chinese farmer has died only one day after being brought to hospital. He’s the sixth person in China to die since the end of March.
The farmer lived in Zhejiang Province, which borders Shanghai. Four of the six deaths were in Shanghai.
A 14 year old tourist from Thailand also died, from unexplained pneumonia. However, Chinese health officials say the H7N9 test was negative. The teenager was part of a group of 119 tourists who arrived in Yunnan Province.
All provincial health officials have been ordered to investigate unexplained pneumonia cases, as it seems to be the only sign of H7N9 infection.
