The report, citing a statement from Hong Kong's food and
environmental hygiene department, said that so far the source of the
virus, found in a fecal sample, has not been identified.
The report said that the Hong Kong health department had contacted
three of the four people working at the market and none had bird flu
symptoms.
Hong Kong will hold a special meeting on Monday to evaluate risks
and determine how long the suspension will last.
