Taiwan Churches Prepare for Bird Flu

As Bird Flu Approaches Taiwan, Churches Prepare to Respond Taiwan Church News 2711, 9-15 February, 2004 Reported by Gu Hao-jan & Li Hsin-ren. Translated and rewritten by David

Alexander

The impact of bird flu on Taiwan has been slight. Only a few tens of

thousands of poultry have been slaughtered. Many members of the

Presbyterian Church are engaged in poultry farming, but there is an

acute awareness among them. To date few have been affected. Clergy

report that their church members have done good prevention work, but ask

that prayers for them be unstinting. Farmers and churches alike hope for

an early end to the contagion.
