The Epidemiological pathogenicity of the virus has been subsequently confirmed by national laboratory as low pathogenic (less than 75% comments mortality of the tested chickens) on 20 July 2015. All animals on the infected farms have been culled on 31 January and 2nd February 2015. Thorough cleaning and disinfection have been conducted after stamping out operation. Surrounding poultry farms within 3 km radius of infected farms are under intensified surveillance for 3 months.
