BEIJING, Jan 25 (Reuters) - A man in the southwestern Chinese province of Guizhou has been infected with bird flu and is in a critical condition in hospital, the Health Ministry said on Sunday.
It is the sixth human case of bird flu to be reported in China this year. The Chinese Health Ministry said on its website (www.moh.gov.cn) the latest victim was a 29-year-old man surnamed Zhou who fell sick on Jan. 15.
In recent weeks four people have died of bird flu in China.
"Epidemiological tests show that the patient previously had exposure to live poultry markets," the ministry said in a brief statement.
But nobody with whom he had been in close contact had shown signs of illness, it added.
Even before the latest case, Chinese health officials had been urging extra vigilance this month, when the winter weather was suspected of having helped the virus spread.
Other recent victims fell ill in areas where there had been no known outbreaks of H5N1 in birds.
The H5N1 strain remains largely a virus among birds. Experts say there is a danger that it may evolve into a form that can be transmitted among humans, risking a pandemic in which millions could die.
Including the latest case, at least 36 people have been infected in China and 24 have died from H5N1 to date. (Reporting by Ben Blanchard; Editing by Alex Richardson)

China confirms sixth bird flu case this month
Mon, 26 Jan 2009 1:21p.m.
A 29-year old man has been diagnosed with bird flu and is in critical condition in southwest China, health authorities say.
Bird flu has claimed the lives of four people in China this month.
The Ministry of Health said the man, surnamed Zhou, fell ill on January 15 in Guiyang city and was diagnosed with H5N1 strain of bird flu eight days later.
It said the health department of Guizhou province is "making all-out efforts" to save him, under the guidance of experts from the Ministry of Health.
The man had been exposed to live poultry markets before he got sick, the ministry said.
A woman in China's far west died Friday from bird flu, the fourth death this month, just as millions of people are on the move to return home for the traditional Lunar New Year.
A woman in eastern China, a teenage boy in southwest China and a woman in Beijing also have died from the disease this month.
A two-year-old girl was also sickened with H5N1 but has recovered.
Until this month, no new human infections had been reported in China since February 2007.
Despite the new cases, the Ministry of Health has said there is no evidence of a large-scale outbreak of bird flu. It said the illnesses were isolated, unrelated and did not show significant mutations of the H5N1 virus.
They also occurred during the cold months, which experts have determined are high season for infections, it said.
Still, China launched a daily bird flu reporting system for poultry and human cases Thursday, underscoring its concerns about potential epidemics.
According to the World Health Organisation, bird flu has killed 252 people worldwide since 2003, including 23 in China.
While the disease remains difficult for humans to catch, scientists have warned if outbreaks among poultry are not controlled, the virus may mutate into a form more easily passed between people, possibly triggering a pandemic that could kill millions worldwide.
