life - Shanghai starts monitoring for bird flu

Shanghai will start checking the temperature of international passangers entering or leaving the country from Monday to stop possible bird flu from spreading, the People's Daily writes.
A passenger who has a temperature of over 38 Celsius degrees will be further examined; in case the person has been to a bird flu-hit area or had contact with birds or poultry, treatment at a designated hospital is required.
Systems are still in place at the two airports since the SARS-epidemic hit China in 2003.
