Shares of rubber glove manufacturers may be closely watched amid a bird flu outbreak in China.
According to a Reuters report, China said it was mobilising resources nationwide to combat a new strain of deadly bird flu that has killed three people, as Japan and Hong Kong stepped up vigilance against the virus and Vietnam banned imports of Chinese poultry.
The new H7N9 bird flu strain does not appear to be transmitted from human to human but authorities in Hong Kong raised a preliminary alert and said they were taking precautions at the airport.
In Japan, airports have put up posters at entry points warning all airline passengers from China to seek medical attention if they suspect they have bird flu.
A total of nine people in China have been confirmed to have contracted H7N9, all in the east of the country. Three infected people have died.
