Hong Kong's Centre for Food Safety has suspended all poultry meat and egg imports from Kyoto Prefecture, Japan, after a highly pathogenic H5 avian influenza outbreak was reported. Hong Kong imported about 1,030 tonnes of frozen poultry meat and about 250 million eggs from Japan in the first nine months of the year.
The ban removes a modest export outlet for Japanese poultry, a small regional demand shift that adds to avian flu risk across Asian poultry supply chains.
