Man dies of bird flu in china
    #7707180 - 12/02/07 03:50 PM (16 years, 1 month ago)

So it begins :frown:

http://www.physorg.com/news115829641.html

A man in east China died of bird flu Sunday, the country's 17th fatality from the H5N1 virus, state media reported.
The 24-year-old man was hospitalised last Tuesday after being diagnosed with pneumonia, Xinhua news agency reported early Monday, citing the Jiangsu provincial health department.

The man's condition deteriorated in hospital and he died on Sunday, it said.

Separate tests by the provincial and national disease control centres indicated the man was positive for the deadly H5N1 strain of avian influenza, the agency said, adding the health ministry had confirmed he was infected with bird flu.

The man, surnamed Lu, had no contact with dead poultry, the Jiangsu health department said, according to Xinhua. Jiangsu also had no outbreaks of bird flu, the agency said, citing the provincial animal husbandry bureau.

All 69 people who had close contact with Lu had been put under medical observation but none had so far shown any symptoms, Xinhua said.

With the latest case, the virus has so far infected at least 26 people in China, 17 of whom died. The country's previous bird flu fatality was a teenage soldier who died in June.

While the disease is usually associated with contact with infected birds, China has a widespread poultry vaccination programme and only one confirmed human bird flu case has followed a matching outbreak in poultry.

China conducted a huge campaign last year to contain the disease, aggressively slaughtering tens of thousands of poultry and stepping up public education efforts.

Vice Agriculture Minister Yin Chengjie however warned in September this year that much of the country remained ill-equipped to prevent the spread of bird flu.

The H5N1 strain of bird flu has killed 206 people worldwide since 2003, according to the latest World Health Organisation figures on November 12.

Asia has accounted for most of the victims, with 91 deaths in Indonesia alone and 46 in Vietnam.

Scientists fear that H5N1 will eventually mutate into a form that is much more easily transmissible between humans, triggering a global pandemic.

A UN and World Bank report last week warned that the world remained unprepared to cope with a human pandemic arising from bird flu.

The original source of the virus is thought to have been wild migratory birds.

People are still saying that it's not a big deal and that it's hard for it to spread, but we're fucked.

I'm in need of a sterile sporeprint, if anyone wants to do a trade for some seeds or something, or maybe just for free if you have a lot of them............. i'd really appreciate it :mushroom2:

I have a movie on DVD called "Bird Flu".

In the movie, it spreads like wildfire throughout the States, and eventually gets so out of hand, pretty much everyone dies from it.

Not like those other disease movies, where there's a magical cure at the end and everyone is saved.

What begins? The risk of pandemic will arise when H5N1 mutates into a form that can spread from human to human easily. Which is yet to happen.

and the major difference between then and now is we were throwing our shit into the street instead of beneath it...eventually it will float to the top and the birds will drink and they have!

theirs more to it than that thow but seriously think of all the shit beneath the streets...every road has a sewer under it, all these sewers leak into the ground (don't drink well water).

I thought this was more of an immunity issue, as we are exposed to 'clean' environments all the time are we're pumped full of antibiotics and other such drugs..

We do everything we can to protect ourselves from illness.. which in the end will hinder us... as our general immunity (like other animals seem to have) will disappear just like our other animosities :shrug:

Also the virus will eventually become immune to our typical chemical responses.. at which point we're fucked :frown:

But if we become immune to the virus, then the virus is fucked!
That is, if we can find out how to infect a virus, which isn't even living in the first place .... nevermind.
