Indonesian teenage girl dies of bird flu


<!-- google_ad_section_start -->Jakarta (ANTARA News) - A 16-year-old Indonesian girl has died of bird flu, taking the country's confirmed human death toll from the virus to 96, a health ministry official said on Tuesday.

The girl from Bekasi area east of Jakarta tested positive for bird flu last week, the official at the Health Ministry's bird flu centre was quoted as saying by Reuters.

"One of the girl's neighbours owns a chicken farm. Tests by the agriculture ministry's bird flu centre show the chickens had bird flu," said the official, who declined to be identified.

Contact with sick fowl is the most common way of contracting bird flu, endemic in bird populations in most of Indonesia.

Although bird flu remains an animal disease, experts fear the virus could mutate into a form easily passed from human to human and kill millions.

A 32-year-old woman from Tangerang near Jakarta, who bought a live chicken and some eggs from a market, died of bird flu at her home last Thursday.

On Christmas day, a 24-year-old woman from Jakarta also died from the virus after buying a live chicken from a market.

Indonesia has had the most number of deaths from bird flu of any country.

Indonesia reports 97th human bird flu death

JAKARTA - AN EIGHT-YEAR-OLD Indonesian boy has died of bird flu, the health ministry said on Friday, bringing the toll to 97 in the nation worst hit by the H5N1 virus.

'(The) total number of cumulative Avian influenza cases in Indonesia is 119 with 97 deaths,' the ministry's bird flu centre said in a press release.

The boy from Tangerang, west of the capital Jakarta, died after being treated for one day at the country's main bird flu treatment centre, the ministry said in an e-mailed statement.

His father Untung Nurchayo told okezone.com news website the child had suffered a fever and was initially diagnosed with dengue by doctors at a local hospital.

After the doctors revised their diagnosis he was sent to the Sulianti Saroso hospital in Jakarta, where he died a few hours later.

'Chickens had died suddenly near the boy's house, however, we have not received reports from the survey team whether they are infected with the virus.

There is also a chicken slaughter near where he lived,' said Suharda Ningrum of the bird flu centre.

The bird flu centre said in a press release there had now been 119 Avian influenza cases in Indonesia, 97 of them fatal.

Humans are typically infected with bird flu by coming into direct contact with infected poultry, but experts fear the H5N1 virus may mutate into a form easily transmissible between humans.

Scientists fear such a development would spark a global pandemic with a potential death toll of millions and the World Bank has said such a scenario could cost up to two trillion dollars.

The concern stems from past influenza pandemics. A flu pandemic in 1918, just after the end of World War I, killed 20 million people worldwide.

Authorities were criticised in 2005 for being slow to act when bird flu first broke out in humans in the archipelago nation.

The virus is now endemic in birds across nearly all of its 33 provinces.

The ministry said the fact the boy's neighbour ran a chicken slaughterhouse was a risk factor and it was investigating.

Contact with sick fowl is the most common way of contracting bird flu, endemic in bird populations in most of Indonesia.
