A laboratory test results from the Ministry of Health's Research and Development Center dated October 22, 2007 confirmed that SA, a 3-year old boy from Tangerang district, Banten Province is positively infected by the H5N1 virus.
Another laboratory test from Jakarta-based Eijkman Institute is also required to confirm the test results. In almost all cases, the Eijkman's test results match the Litbangkes laboratory's test results.
