SMS NEWS to 58888 for latest updates

<table border="0" cellpadding="0" cellspacing="0" width="100%"> <tbody><tr> <td align="left" valign="top"> JAKARTA: An Indonesian woman who lived near a poultry slaughterhouse on the outskirts of the capital has died of bird flu, the health ministry said on Friday, the latest victim in a surge of cases this year.

The woman from Tangerang is the seventh person to die of bird flu in Indonesia this year.

Some experts say the flare-up is caused by a combination of several factors such as rainy weather and poor sanitation. The woman, 31, was being treated at a Jakarta hospital. She died of multiple-organ failure late on Thursday.
"The woman lived in a neighbourhood full of fowl. A slaughterhouse is not so far from her house," Muhammad Nadirin of the bird flu centre said.

It remains unclear how she contracted the bird flu virus. Her death brings the country's death toll to 102, the highest of any nation.

Contact with sick fowl is the most common way of contracting bird flu, endemic in bird populations in most of Indonesia.

Although bird flu remains an animal disease, experts fear the H5N1 virus could mutate into a form easily passed from human to human. Millions of people could die because they would have no immunity to the new strain.

Not including the latest death, bird flu has killed 224 people in a dozen countries since late 2003, the World Health Organisation says.

Indonesia reports 103rd bird flu death



JAKARTA - A 29-YEAR-OLD Indonesian woman has become the country's latest bird flu fatality, the health ministry confirmed on Monday, bringing the toll to 103 in the worst-hit nation.

'We are now at 126 infection cases, 103 of them fatal,' the ministry's director general for contagious disease control, I Nyoman Kandun, told AFP.

A 28-year-old woman has also been confirmed as infected but is still alive, he added.

The health ministry's website identified the latest fatality, who died over the weekend, as SU, and said she came from the Jakarta satellite city of Tangerang, where she was admitted to hospital on Jan 28, six days after falling ill.

She was referred to Jakarta's Persahabatan hospital a day later but died on Saturday, the site said.

Nine people have died from bird flu in Indonesia so far this year, all of them from Jakarta and its surrounding sprawl.

The ministry site identified the latest bird flu patient as SA and said she comes from West Jakarta's Kalideres district, next to Tangerang.

The ministry said she fell sick on Jan 24, was admitted to a hospital in Tangerang two days later and eventually transferred to Jakarta's Persahabatan last Friday, where she is still being given respiratory aid.

The woman who died, SU, had recently visited her parent's home, where neighbours kept ducks, the site reported, but did not say where the village was located. The infected patient, SA, lived in a neighbourhood where backyard poultry are kept.

Experts fear that the virus, which is usually spread directly from a bird to a human, could mutate into a form easily transmissible between people, sparking a deadly global pandemic.

The concern stems from past influenza pandemics. A pandemic in 1918, just after the end of World War I, killed 20 million people worldwide.

Bird flu is now endemic across nearly all of Indonesia, which was initially criticised for being slow to act against the deadly virus. -- AFP
