Bird flu news

The following link contains 3 separate stories.

The first is about the boy and girl who died from bird flu in Indonesia a week ago. Indonesia now is Number One in bird flu deaths, with a total of 44. Until recently, Vietnam held that title with 42.

But while Vietnam has aggressively fought bird flu, Indonesia has taken a much less determined path, and this is the result.

Yet Vietnam is not yet free of the high pathogenic avian influenza. Some was just found in ducks and geese in the provinces of Tien Giang, Long An and Ben Tre.

And in a followup a story that started several months ago, a Chinese soldier has definately been determined to be a bird flu death way back in 2003. He'd originally been declared dead of SARS, which was the scariest disease threat back then.

This article claims WHO says he's the first human case of avian influenza.

This makes no sense. We know that was a 3 year old boy in Hong Kong in May 1997. Perhaps he was the first case of bird flu death since the disease re-emerged in 2003.
