Everyone take note once again Bird Flu has crossed into humans, if it gets into someone with pig flu also it could mutate into a superbug...


A 7-month-old baby was rushed to the Dr Slamet Hospital in Kabupaten Garut, West Java early on Sat 26 Feb 2011 and was treated in a bird flu isolation unit. The baby had developed coughing, fever and breathing difficulty. Hundreds of chickens were reported to have died suddenly as a result of bird flu [avian (A/(H5N1) influenza virus infection] in the patient's neighborhood (Kampung Cangkuang, Desa Bagendit, Kecamatan Banyuresmi). The baby is reported to have had contact with the diseased chickens. The Head of the Livestock Division of Kecamatan Banyuresmi also is being treated in the same hospital as a bird flu suspect patient. They both are receiving intensive medical care. Nose and throat swab samples have been sent to the Ministry of Health Laboratory in Jakarta.

"sounds like a Atlantian disease, on the days that pigs could fly" -quote an unnamed friend. They will try it again, of course, which is another reason why now, like you said, 3 are better than one. Compliments of Fort Deitrick.
