A poultry worker is suffering from conjunctivitis after contracting the
H7 strain of bird flu, the Health Protection Agency has confirmed.

The person was infected through close contact with birds at the Witford
Lodge Farm in North Tuddenham, Norfolk, which had the disease.

H7 has no relationship to the deadly H5N1 strain which has killed over
100 people, mainly in South Asia.

The Health Protection Agency said the worker has no other symptoms.
