According to experts, human infection with H7N9 influenza is an acute respiratory infection caused by the H7N9 influenza virus. It is mainly transmitted through the respiratory tract and can also be infected through close contact with infected poultry secretions or excretions. Direct contact with the virus can also be infected. There is currently no evidence that the virus has sustained human-to-human communication capabilities. Research shows that the sales model of the live poultry market provides many opportunities for virus transmission. The exposure of the live poultry trade market is a high risk factor for human infection with bird flu. Therefore, the upgrading of the live poultry market and the listing of raw fresh chickens can effectively reduce the risk of people becoming infected with H7N9 bird flu.
