China's bird flu outbreak continues to spread as another outbreak is identified in a previously unaffected province.
New outbreaks are being reported daily in China (the H5N1 virus).
Last night, four more were announced, along with four more suspected outbreaks.
The total number of cases now stands at 28 in more than a third of China's regions.
All this when less than two weeks ago the country was officially bird flu-free.
More than one million ducks, chickens and geese have been culled in China as authorities try to prevent and control the spread of the virus.
