>China Has Withheld Samples of a Dangerous Flu Virus

 

>Despite an international agreement, U.S. health authorities still have not received H7N9 avian flu specimens from their Chinese counterparts.

 

>For over a year, the Chinese government has withheld lab samples of a rapidly evolving influenza virus from the United States โ€” specimens needed to develop vaccines and treatments, according to federal health officials.

 

>Despite persistent requests from government officials and research institutions, China has not provided samples of the dangerous virus, a type of bird flu called H7N9. In the past, such exchanges have been mostly routine under rules established by the World Health Organization.

 

>Now, as the United States and China spar over trade, some scientists worry that the vital exchange of medical supplies and information could slow, hampering preparedness for the next biological threat.
