France has picked German company Boehringer Ingelheim and France's Ceva Animal Health to supply a second round of bird flu vaccines, as part of a vaccination campaign that started in autumn last year, the companies told Reuters on Friday.

Boehringer Ingelheim will provide 34.2 million doses as part of the second tender, which is for 61 million doses, the company said, adding that deliveries are due to begin in April.
