The southern city of Foshan in Guangdong Province reported a new human H7N9 case yesterday, raising the total number of cases in the province to 10 since August.
The 51-year-old female patient, surnamed Cui, was sent to hospital on January 1. She is now in a critical condition, said the provincial health and family planning commission.
Cui bought a live chicken at a market and slaughtered it at home.
No abnormal conditions have been found in the 21 people who were in close contact with the patient.
