The results again showed a thoracic X-ray picture of the extensive consolidation in the left lung and an overview perselubungan homogeneous in basal right lung. Laboratory results also strongly support that direction. Until we are assured that these patients had a viral infection, but virus what can make a very rapid deterioration?

Initially we were hesitant because of the interviews with patients and their families do not get a history of contact with poultry. Then me and dr. Edi Hidayat discussion, re-read the literature on avian influenza. Until we finally conclude the patient is likely infected with H5N1, the bird flu virus. Immediately, we report these findings to Konsulen Specialist Internal Medicine, and the patient immediately transferred to the isolation room.

To prove whether or not the bird flu case, then the local health office RSMY and send samples to the laboratory research and development of the Ministry of Health in Jakarta. A few days later the results obtained, and it turns out positive for bird flu, H5N1. But unfortunately, the patient died, despite being first can get the maximum handling.
