Google translates 陈某在娘家吃了因鸡瘟疫死去的鸡，as

Chen's parents died eating chicken because the chicken plague,

which has led some individuals in flublogia to speculate that the young woman's parents also died from consumption of H5N1 tainted chickens.

A more likely translation of 陈某在娘家吃了因鸡瘟疫死去的鸡， is provided by WorldLingo as

Because Chen has eaten the chicken in the maternal home which chicken plague died,

This translation indicates that the parents did not die, but that Chen consumed the infected chicken at her parent's home. Based on all media reports about the young woman and her family this is probably the correct translation.

A single instance of machine translated non-English text should be critically evaluated, even if the the translator is Google. If a passage contains significant information that could be misinterpreted, more than one translation source should be used, or the passage translated on a word-by-word basis from a dictionary if necessary.

Thanks Al. I agree.

Let's be frank here.

China manipulates their media and we have actually no idea what is going on there. It is increasingly difficult to ascertain the disease situation in China.

I edited out the spec comment above because we have no idea how this woman contracted H5N1.

Are we to believe that she caught this from the only H5N1 infected chicken in China?

China's Health Ministry calls for heightened measures following bird flu death

English.news.cn 2010-06-13 00:21:51
BEIJING, June 12 (Xinhua)

China's Health Ministry on Saturday called for heightened measures against the possible spread of bird flu virus after a woman in central China died from the disease on June 3.

The ministry urged health authorities at all levels to increase prevention and control measures on respiratory diseases as the country's southern areas are entering into the peak flu season.

Health authorities at all levels, especially in Shanghai and Guangzhou, host cities respectively for the 2010 World Expo and the Asian Games, were asked to formulate emergency plans to cope with the possible spread of the disease [probably seasonal flu activity, Mod.], according to a notice posted on the ministry website.

Health authorities at all levels should report and respond quickly to unidentifiable pneumonia, it said, adding they should also prepare medical equipment and pharmaceuticals to cope with possible outbreaks of respiratory diseases, such as bird flu.

Health authorities in Shanghai, Guangzhou, quake-hit Yushu in Qinghai Province and southern provinces plagued by floods were also asked to coordinate the assistance of experts to take effective measures on disease prevention and control.
