He hoped production of the medicine at home could be done well like producing generic medicines so that the price could be made as low as possible.

The pills would later be distributed to community health care centers across the country as well as to general hospitals in districts and provinces in anticipation of the possibility of a further spread of the disease.

The virus had so far affected 12 out of the country`s 33 provinces , including the tourist island of Bali.

Avian Flu Rampant In Indonesian Capital Of Jahkarta
by Mike Baron
Nov 25, 2005

Indonesia said Friday it would begin producing the bird flu drug Tamiflu with help from Swiss-based drug manufacturer Roche Holding AG. Bird flu has been detected throughout the Indonesian capital, Jakarta, with the country's Agriculture Minister Anton Apriyantono admitting: "It's very serious. Based on our research, the virus has spread all over the city," according to published reports.

Indonesia can now produce the antiviral drug, according to published reports, and the country will start making it as soon as it decides whether to get the raw materials from China or Korea, said Health Minister Siti Fadilah Supari.

"This means we can produce Tamiflu in our own factories," she told The AP.

"Tamiflu does not have patent protection in Indonesia," Roche spokesman Baschi Duerr said from the company's headquarters in Switzerland. "Indonesia is therefore free to produce Tamiflu as long as the product is distributed only in the domestic market."

Indonesia Asked to Watch Out for Bird Flu Pandemic

Wednesday, 12 September, 2007 | 14:44 WIB

TEMPO Interactive, Nusa Dua: There is extreme concern that a bird flu pandemic will hit several countries including Indonesia.

If this were to happen, millions of people would die and the social as well as economic losses would reach billions of US dollars.

David Nabbaro, Senior Coordinator for Avian and Human Influenza at the United Nations, made this statement during the meeting between the Indonesian government and international partners in terms of bird flu handling, in Nusa Dua, Bali, yesterday (11/9).

?Now the deaths are still few compared to deaths by other diseases. However, in a pandemic situation, deaths in large numbers don?t require a long time,? said Nabbaro.

He pointed out that the spread of the virus had been extremely fast.

Between 2003 and 2005, it was only found in one country, but now it has already been in 60 countries.

Fortunately, there has not been any record of the virus spreading from human to human.

According to Nabbaro, for Indonesia this virus is a serious problem.

In addition, the virus has spread to fowls so it is very difficult to minimize and control.

Indonesia, geographically, is a large country and politically very decentralized.

?This is very different from Vietnam that has succeeded handling this virus,? he said.

He emphasized that all groups in Indonesia must have a strong, long-term commitment as regards overcoming this problem.

This is because so far there are still several regions that are refusing the procedure implementation, especially due to economic reasons.

However, compared to a year ago, said Nabbaro, the awareness of the general public and regional governments is better now.

So when it says "David Nabbaro made this statement" are they referring to the following statement? I'm wondering if this is the opinion of the journalist or Nabarro:

"There is extreme concern that a bird flu pandemic will hit several countries including Indonesia." I don't have a specific quote from Nabbaro saying his is "extremely concerned".

Listen to Bouchard report


A group of international health experts has drafted a three-year program for Indonesia aimed at containing the spread of bird flu. The disease is now endemic among poultry there, and chickens are a common backyard feature in the country, which has suffered the highest number of human deaths from bird flu in the world. Chad Bouchard reports from Jakarta.
About 150 participants from 11 countries have gathered in Bali to help Indonesia improve its bird flu control measures.

He says the biggest challenge stems from people's close contact with chickens, which are common in private homes across Indonesia.
"One-point-five billion poultry, which seem to be suffering from quite large numbers of outbreaks of highly pathogenic avian influenza: that is clearly the big issue," Nabarro noted, "because it is ... bird flu in the birds that (is) then leading to humans getting H5N1 infection, and that is giving us the risk of the emergence of a pandemic virus. And we need a pretty intensive new drive in order to get it fully under control, and it will take probably a two- to three-year period."
The U.N. Food and Agriculture Organization is helping Indonesia establish community programs to make sure outbreaks of the virus among birds are reported as quickly as possible.
John Weaver, the FAO senior adviser on bird flu in Indonesia, says the country has made small gains in reducing the number of human infections during the past year.
He says the key to controlling the disease is keeping people away from sick birds.
"The problem is that the disease is so entrenched that we have got a real endemic situation. So what we need to do is identify and then knock out these risk pathways," he said.
The virus has affected birds or humans in 12 of the Indonesia's 33 provinces.
The World Health Organization has confirmed 200 human fatalities from the virus worldwide since 2003, including 85 deaths - more than 42 percent of the world's total - in Indonesia.
