For the media's patients are bus drivers, passengers and why was not as close contacts? Mahan Wu said so far, the world has not found one case of human transmission of bird moving, people are infected with avian influenza virus through contact with infected poultry and their feces, according to the relevant plans, so the passengers can not be regarded as close contacts.

Re: China - Human case of H5N1 Dies in Shenzhen, Guangdong province (December 30 2011)

This reminds me of the June 2010 H5N1 case in China.

A pregnant woman died in Hubei province.

The Minister of Agriculture denied that her disease was caused by exposure to any H5N1 infected poultry.

While at the same time the Minister of Health reported that she had exposure to sick chickens implying an H5N1 infection in those chickens. This fact deflects a serious discussion about possible human to human spread of H5N1 in this case.

The above conflict between the Ministries of Health and Agriculture give rise to the natural scapegoat: wild birds.

Health authorities still search for cause in bird flu death
English.news.cn 2012-01-01 20:19:56

GUANGZHOU, Jan. 1 (Xinhua) -- Health authorities in south Guangdong province have yet to find the cause of the highly pathogenic H5N1 virus, commonly known as bird flu, that led to the death of a bus driver, a local disease control official said Sunday.

The 39-year-old man surnamed Chen in Bao'an district of Shenzhen was hospitalized for fever on Dec. 21 and tested positive for the H5N1 avian influenza virus. He died of multiple organ failure Saturday afternoon, the Guangdong Health Department said in a statement.

The department also said that during the previous month prior to his fever, he had no direct contact with poultry and hadn't traveled out of the city.

Chen's wife said he had a habit of doing morning exercises every day near a wetland park and an artificial lake not far from his home, but "no proof has been found that his infection is connected with the migratory birds there," He Jianfeng, director of the Epidemics Studies Institute of the Guangdong Disease Control Center, said Sunday.

"We also don't know whether he had eaten poultry before he fell ill," He said.

He said contacts with poultry and migratory birds are two ways for humans to be infected with bird flu.

"But Chen had been in coma after being hospitalized, so we couldn't inquire about what birds or poultry he may have had contact with," he said...
