This is the doctor who tested wild cats in the Jakarta market and found 20% had contracted/were infected [can't remember exactly] with avian influenza, the doctor who warned about the various distinct strains of AI in Indonesia, and also who warned about other mammals (pigs) being able to carry the virus. He has already tried to raise various warning bells, but not many seem to hear him.
