Low chicken price drives purchases amid H7N9

People pack chickens on their motorcycles after a sweeping purchase at a live chicken wholesale market in Maoming city, South China‘s Guangdong province on April 14, 2013. The price of live chicken was pulled down a lot by its declining demand due to fear of H7N9 avian flu virus infections, alluring many local residents to the market to buy more than 10 chickens at a time and some even packed chickens into the seat of sedans.
