Via the Hong Kong government website: Genetic reassortment detected in swine flu virus. Excerpt:
One pig sample taken at the Sheung Shui Slaughterhouse on January 7 contains essentially a swine influenza virus that had picked up an H1N1 gene, the University of Hong Kong has found.
This is the first time that a reassortment of swine flu virus with the pandemic H1N1 virus was found in its surveillance programme.
There is no cause for alarm for public health, and pork remains safe for consumption, the Centre for Health Protection said. The Government is monitoring developments and will keep the public informed.
