It requires a very unusual mind to undertake the analysis of the obvious. (A. N. Whitehead, British Philosopher 1861 - 1947)

Pioneer, welcome to our world! Always glad to see someone from "across the pond" join us. I would like to point out though that India's admission to H5N1 is only an admission, not a new development. They have likely had it for over two years and would just never 'fess up. Somewhere on Recombinomics.com Dr Niman posits that the Chinese Quinque (sp?) lake variant actually originated in India, not China. IIRC, anyway. |

is it so bad they cant hide it anymore? I made that very suggestion in Speculation about an hour ago. That's my take on it, but I would remind everyone that I base it on nothing more than my gut feelings. |

thank you, this is a great site. and they are still trying to cover up, PUNE: The death of around 75,000 birds in Nandurbar district is not due to bird flu, as declared by the Maharashtra government, according to Anuradha Desai, chairperson of the National Egg Co-ordination Committee and chairperson of Venkateshwara Hatcheries Ltd, country's largest poultry procesing company. "It is some mistake. I am surprised and shocked at how the government has declared that it is bird flu on the basis on just one report. We are not in agreement with it," said Desai. Desai said there has not been a single case of bird flu at the Poultry Diagniostic and Research Centre, a sister concern of Venkateshwara Hatcheries. Desai said the deaths are more likely due to a seasonal poultry disease called Ranikhed or Newcastle, which usually occurs at the onset of summer every year. see http://timesofindia.indiatimes.com/articleshow/1420232.cms Edited by pioneer |

looks like the reason india has gone public is because people are sick or died over there. see http://www.rte.ie/news/2006/0219/birdflu.html India reports human birdflu death India has reported its first suspected human death from bird flu. A poultry farm owner is believed to have died from the disease on Friday. The dead man was a resident of Maharashtra state, where the H5N1 strain of the disease has been discovered in thousands of chickens. Doctors are testing several people in the area for the disease and up to half a million birds are expected to be culled. |

I support SZ on this. It looks like it's 'spreading' but it's been around a long time. Maybe it's just getting more socially acceptable for countries to report it
