          Six patients are currently treated in the Friendship Hospital, Jakarta East, till Monday (8/1).


          They experienced the sign of the deadly illness.

          The six patients generally still have relatives's relations.

          Ramli was treated three days set after being stated positive contracted bird flu.

          Followed by the mother, the brother, as well as his three neighbours, this morning.They lived in the Rawabebek region, Angke, Jakarta North.

          But the hospital side was not yet prepared to give the explanation.

          The team of the justified doctor was discussing this condition in a special meeting.

          The above translation describes a suspected H5N1 bird flu cluster in Jakarta. The index case (14M) has already been confirmed, and now three family members and three neighbors in northern Jakarta have been admitted with symptoms.

          If confirmed, this would be the largest cluster to date on Java. Last year, a large cluster in Karo in North Sumatra was reported, but the H5N1 in the Karo cluster was distinct from the H5N1 in human cases on Java, including cases in and around Jakarta.

          All but one H5N1 from humans on Java have had the novel cleavage site, RESRRKKR, which has been found in one duck from Indramayu in January, 2006. That sequence match a small subset of human isolates, but an isolate from a cat in Indramayu matched the majority of the human H5N1 sequences from Java.

          Thus, there is concern that migratory birds would bring new sequences into the area and recombine with the local version of H5N1, which is Clade 2 sub-clade 1 in Indonesia. Hong Kong has also just confirmed H5N1 in a wild bird, which was also reported at this time last year. The H5N1 sequences from last season in Hong Kong were related to the Fujian strain (Clade 2 sub-clade 3). Similarly, the Qinghai strain was just confirmed in South Korea.

          Recently there was also a cluster reported in Gharbiya in the Nile Delta, the site of additional wild bird migration. H5N1 in Egypt is the Qinghai strain (Clade 2 sub-clade 2). Like Indonesia and Hong Kong, the new versions of H5N1 are created by recombination, which uses the resident strain as a genetic background, and appends new polymorphisms, which match across various strains.

          In Indonesia, Qinghai sequences, including the novel Qinghai cleavage site of GERRRKKR has been reported in Bali, Indonesia. Similarly, Qinghai sequences have been found in Fujian isolates in China.

          When migratory birds deliver these new sequences, new problems follow.

          More information on the family members and neighbors of the confirmed case would be useful. The cluster in Egypt has already produced the largest cluster reported to date in Egypt, and similar results in Indonesia would not be a surprise.

                Indonesian woman with bird flu in critical condition, health official says
                The Associated PressPublished: January 8, 2007


                JAKARTA, Indonesia: An Indonesian woman was in critical condition Monday after being hospitalized with bird flu, a health official said. It was unclear how she contracted the virus.

                The 37-year-old is the second person to be sickened by the disease in less than a week, said I Nyoman Kandun
                , the Ministry of Health's director general of communicable disease control.

                The other was a 14-year-old boy, Kandun said, adding that both are from the industrial city of Tangerang on the western outskirts of the capital, Jakarta, and are being treated at the Persahabatan hospital.

                The woman hospitalized Monday, identified only as Ria, "is now in critical condition," said Kandun.

                "We are still trying to track down the source of infection," he said.

                Indonesia has reported 76 people infected with the deadly H5N1 bird flu strain, and 57 of them have died ? more than a third of the world's total ? since the disease began ravaging Asian poultry stocks in 2003.

                International experts have accused Indonesia's government of not doing enough to tackle the virus, which they fear may mutate into a form that could spread easily between humans and potentially kill millions around the world.

                However, the number of infections and deaths has dropped sharply in the past three months ? a situation partly attributed to a national campaign to increase public awareness and vaccinate poultry.

                        Pondokjagung and Rawalele. These places are near Tangerang, so it could refer to the same patient(s).

                        Liputan6.com, Jakarta:

                        the Case of bird flu again emerged in the Capital.

                        As for five patients just came from the area was the same as a patient who has been stated positive bird flu.

                        Now Riyah, the resident from Pondokjagung, Tangerang, Banten, became the patient of the seven assumption of bird flu that entered the Friendship Hospital, of Jakarta East.

                        He/She was treated since two days in the Tangerang Public Hospital.

                        Beforehand, the side RS Persahabatan received six new patients who were expected by bird flu.

                        Five assumption patients of bird flu from Rawalele, Jakarta West, this was treated in Soka Space that was made space of the bird flu isolation in RS Persahabatan.

                        All the patients had the sign resembled bird flu, that is the temperature of the high body was accompanied breathless.

                        Five last patients were the family and the close neighbour Randi, 14 years, that were stated positive bird flu by the Centre of Health Research And Development (Puslitbangkes) the Department of the Health.

                        Randi was treated since January 5 set.



                        So Randi is the neighbour of Ramli? Both 14 yo?
