Ghana has been hit with the first outbreak of the highly pathogenic H5N1 bird flu at a chicken farm east of the capital Accra.

The virus was proven by tests carried out in Ghana and were supported by a US naval services laboratory in Cairo, Egypt.

Ghana is now the eighth African country to report a case of the deadly H5N1 avian influenza virus in poultry. In Africa, Egypt, Ivory Coast, Cameroon, Djibouti, Burkina Faso, Niger and Nigeria have all reported cases of H5N1 in poultry.
