Cambodian officials said Monday the bird flu situation in a rural village is 'now under control' following the death of an 11-year-old girl from the H5N1 strain.
The girl’s father recently tested negative, though he is still being treated in the hospital after he got infected last week.
Yet investigators said 29 samples of close contacts and persons with flu-like illness in the Cambodian village came back negative, according to Or Vandine, a spokeswoman for the Cambodian Ministry of Health.
