Re: Japan suspends poultry imports from Germany amid bird flu outbreak

probably more political than economical with only 114000 chickens per year.

Is it reasonable to assume chickens could be contaminated ?
Do consumers react ? I remember, they did i.e. in Italy in 2006.
Also with Bernard Matthews turkeys earlier this year
