On Tuesday (Nov 10), the South Korean Ministry of Agriculture said it had confirmed the highly pathogenic H5N8 strain of bird flu in wild bird samples in the central west of the country and issued its bird flu warning.
The virus was found in samples collected last week from wild birds in Cheonan-si, Chungcheongnam-do, about 84 km west of Seoul, the Ministry of Agriculture said in a statement. 
The ministry said prevention measures to contain a wider spread of bird flu have been ramped up and a highly pathogenic avian influenza warning has been issued as there are increased risks of spreading the virus.
"This is a serious situation where the pollutant can flow from the migratory bird land to the farm though various routes,"
Agriculture Ministry Kim Hyeon-soo said in a statement, urging the thorough implementation of quarantine measures at farms, such as the daily disinfecting of farmyards.
