Measures to prevent the bird flu are being taken in Shirak marz though
no case of the disease has been registered in the region so far.

The region has received about 10 thousand dose inoculums and has
inoculated the inhabitants free of charge.

Chief of the Regional Antiepidemic Board Karine Tairyan claims that in
case they are ordered to stop the measures immediately by the central
headquarters they will resume them in September – October as the flu
and other contagious diseases spreading through air, like respiratory
infaction grow acute especially in that period.
