I check the following news each day from the WSJ Avian Flu News Tracker.
Lately (last 2–3 weeks) there has been some good news posted on there site
“Sunday, May 14
11 a.m.: “Vietnam, which has had almost half of the human cases of H5N1 flu in the world, has not seen a single case in humans or a single outbreak in poultry this year, the New York Times reported. Thailand, the second-hardest-hit nation until Indonesia recently passed it, has not had a human case in nearly a year or one in poultry in six months. Encouraging signs have also come from China, though they are harder to interpret.”
Thursday, May 18
“10:15 a.m.: The global bird-flu outbreak might “burn itself out” before it becomes a human pandemic, Bloomberg quoted Anthony Fauci, director of the U.S. National Institute of Allergy and Infectious Diseases, as saying. The Washington Times cited the drop in bird-flu cases in Europe and the fact that Vietnam, which has the world’s highest human death toll from H5N1, has been free of the disease in both people and poultry for a year, as supporting evidence for such a theory.”
Prepare for the worst and hope for the best
While that is good news, unfortunately the news out of Indonesia is very troubling. Egypt is not looking so good either.
