Results In 2021, there were 3 positive cases of avian influenza virus in poultry markets in Tongzhou district, involving two farmers’ markets and one wholesale market. From March to May, 40 samples were collected from each of the two farmers' markets. 74 samples were positive (30.83%), including 18 H7N9 samples (7.50%) and 56 H9N2 samples (23.33%).
