Re: Indonesia: The Latest Human Suspected & Confirmed Cases January 29 +
	
		
			
			
				
	
The current CFR in Indonesia is at 82% not including the four cases that have yet to be officially reported to WHO.  The CFR for WHO confirmed H5N1 cases in all other countries combined is 52%.  This difference is probably statistically significant.
Because there is no reason to suspect that H5N1 is differentially affecting individuals in Indonesia, the high CFR in Indonesia is most likely the result of the failure to properly test and report individuals who survived but may have been infected with H5N1 as Niman notes.
