Interesting that all of us are noticing a number of “patient recovering or improving” over the last 10 days. We rarely saw this before.
I don’t think it is due to receiving quicker or more effective treatment. We are talking about very remote villages here and if they are informed on how to prevent the Avian Flu, I doubt they have adequate knowledge on how to get immediate help and antivirals.
Does anyone think something else is going on? More transmissions with less death. I am not sure whether this is good news or bad news!

Are these confirmed cases?
I’m beginning to wonder what people have who are testing negative for H5N1 in the area. Seasonal flu? Pertussis? Measles? They could be having an outbreak of something else really nasty that causes pneumonia and fever, on top of h5n1 cases. If they don’t have H5N1 and they’re recovering, what DO they have?
