The 67 people who had close contact with her had shown no signs of being affected, including 51 who had been discharged from medical observation, the department added.

Peng fell ill on January 7 in central Hunan Province. She was taken to Shanxi by her grandparents on January 11 and was confirmed to be infected with avian influenza on January 17.

Three people have died of bird flu and another has been infected in China so far this year. The first death was a 19-year-old woman in Beijing on January 5, followed by a 27-year-old woman in Shandong on January 17 and a 16-year-old boy in Hunan on January 20.

The death rate for bird flu patients is above 60 percent.
