Thailand is investigating a possible fresh outbreak of bird flu after 600 chickens at a farm near the capital died within a few days, officials said.
Thailand, the world's fourth largest chicken exporter, has been on alert for fresh outbreaks of bird flu after the H5N1 virus swept across Asia from late last year.
