Dr Nidom: bird flu virus now is "humanized virus"

Gert van der Hoek

In Memoriam - Editor, Senior Moderator
Dr Nidom is commenting the news on bird flu in Pakistan in this report, particularly the WHO statement on limited human-to-human transmission of the bird flu virus.

- snip -

In the meantime, the Bird Flu Researcher from the Health Faculty of the Airlangga University Animal, CA Nidom, said that indeed had the indication of the virus H5N1 began to change the form resembled was similar to the available virus in humans.

He admitted, there were signs that the virus now no longer spreads through the poultry. (Meaning poultry is no longer the only source of contamination, ed). Results of this conclusion were based on his research in many cases of available bird flu in Indonesia.

In the meeting in Bandung around the last two months, the team's findings of this researcher have been sent to the government

That is that the bird flu virus now has the new identity: the "humanized virus".

Now the time for the government to increasingly encourage the control of this virus, he said to SINDO.

Nevertheless, he not menafikkan that the source of the spread of bird flu, the poultry was still continuing to play a role.

The fact is, in Indonesia indeed a great number were found the poultry in the settlement. So as rather was difficult to distinguish which virus that really from the poultry, and whatever that not.

I recommended to the government to more serious croaked this virus mystery . The mechanism of the sending of the sample to WHO indeed stayed important.

However, more important again croaked his mystery in order to prevents the occurrence of the pandemic or the plague that could kill millions of humankind in time in an instant, he explained.

Responded to the WHO statement about the human-to-human spread of bird flu that was limited that, according to Nidom, could not be regarded as something that was not serious.

That was a warning that the bird flu virus currently becomes increasingly strong and virulent. So as the anticipation action and vigilance must be increased.

the hidden reservoir.
I assume he doesn't mean that the virus goes through humans
and survives, going to other humans or back to animals.

So we would be searching for an animal reservoir.(again or still)
He suggests an animal reservoir, but don't say how he got
that evidence.
Nidom had examined swine. Also cats in Indo had been suggested.

"CA Nidom, said that indeed had the indication of the virus H5N1 began to change the form resembled was similar to the available virus in humans."
