The Chinese province adjacent to the one where the coronavirus first appeared is facing an outbreak of H5N1 bird flu, according to news reports.
What officials said was a highly pathogenic strain was reported in Hunan province, just south of Hunei province where the coronavirus-plagued city of Wuhan is located, the Ministry of Agriculture and Rural Affairs announced Saturday, according to Reuters.

The government reported that the outbreak took place on a farm that had 7,850 chickens, 4,500 of which died due to the disease.
More than 17,000 poultry were later killed to avoid the spread of the disease, the government reported.
The World Health Organization said the bird flu causes severe respiratory disease in birds and is contagious to humans.
