It's not clear yet what sort of outbreak this is. Hundreds of people have apparently taken ill in the last 3 weeks on a south Sumatran island -- so far, 4 people have died. The authorities are talking about typhoid (translated as typhus using the machine-translator, but that usually should be typhoid).
Thousands of poultry have also died -- with symptoms that could sound like bf. It's not clear yet whether the poultry deaths and the human illness/deaths are connected -- but it's certainly very suspicious.
