Avian Influenza and Ban on Overnight Poultry Storage in Live Poultry Markets, Hong Kong
We analyzed ≈12 years of surveillance data on avian influenza in Hong Kong live poultry markets. A ban on keeping live poultry overnight in these markets reduced virus isolation rates by 84% in chickens (p = 0.006) and 100% (p = 0.01) in minor poultry.

Interventions in live poultry markets for the control of avian influenza: A systematic review [PDF]
BACKGROUND: Live poultry markets (LPMs) pose a threat to public health by promoting the amplification and dissemination of avian influenza viruses (AIVs) and by providing the ideal setting for zoonotic influenza transmission. OBJECTIVE: This review assessed the impact of different interventions implemented in LPMs to control the emergence of zoonotic ...

Continuing evolution of highly pathogenic H5N1 viruses in Bangladeshi live poultry markets [PDF]
Since November 2008, we have conducted active avian influenza surveillance in Bangladesh. Clades 2.2.2, 2.3.4.2, and 2.3.2.1a of highly pathogenic avian influenza H5N1 viruses have all been identified in Bangladeshi live poultry markets (LPMs), although, since the end of 2014, H5N1 viruses have been exclusively from clade 2.3.2.1a.
