BANDUNG: Just three days after a suspected bird flu patient died in 

Bandung, another suspect died in Hasan Sadikin hospital in the city on 

Saturday night after being treated in an isolation ward for a day.

"Her fever was not too high, only about 37 degree Celsius, but an acute 

(bird flu) patient tends to have a declining temperature. But she clearly 

developed breathing distress and we put her on a ventilator," the hospital 

director, Cissy Rachiana Prawira, said on Sunday.

She said the hospital had not yet received the results from local tests on 

the three patients' blood samples to confirm whether they had bird flu or 

not. "
