Vietnam: Patients had serious complication

Institute of Hygiene epidemiological Central 27 / 7 has been officially confirmed case of death of a patient named T. live in Ky Tien, Ky Anh district, Ha Tinh province non influenza A/H1N1 and influenza A/H5N1.

Anh T. many epidemiological factors, clinical symptoms similar to influenza by influenza A/H1N1 and A/H5N1 tests but official results were negative.

And there's our answer. None of the four cases are H5N1 positive, the fatal case is H1N1 negative as well, and the epidemological links are not likely strong enough to link him to the one of the four cases in the area that is H1N1 positive.

Vietnam, as well as Egypt, Indonesia, China, etc. that have H5N1 widespread in birds, is going to have a heckuva time distinguishing H1N1 from H5N1 from other pathogens.
