As I have already shown the many cases of breeders and family handling dead birds without masks or gloves, Bird carcasses in the rivers and roadsides and taken to the markets, the situation is becoming critical.
Now h5n1 continues to spread and I have reported an outbreak in Bali. It is not going to stop anytime soon and neither will suspected cases.
I have seen a few reports that I haven't posted.
If they can't admit to positive cases and of what strain, then
how do we know if anything they say is true?
Like..
Everybody is negative..
The birds have ecoli, cholera, newcastle or the weather did it...
It is the result of another country or that country's vaccine..
They will have a new vaccine for the birds by the end of Jan2013..

The farm was disinfected and disposed of manure around the farm set up a one kilometer-wide exclusion zone. Is now all poultry farmers keep their animals in the stables, the meat can not be sold.
During a routine check on the farm for some geese Tangstedter the H5N3 flu virus was detected. Maybe have a wild goose infected the free-running animals, speculates the CEO. Symptoms they had shown no.
In early 2006 in Schleswig-Holstein dead wild birds were found with the H5N1 flu virus - influenza. At that time, the breeder had in much of the country by bringing their animals in the barn. The H5N1 virus was and is a fire hazard and transferable to humans. IN QUESTION When newly discovered H5N3 virus contrast, there are a relatively harmless variant, a spokeswoman for the Kiel Environmental and Agriculture Ministry stressed immediately. It had to animals only slightly pathogenic effect.For humans there is no danger of contagion was "almost impossible".However: Flu viruses can mutate easily, experts say. From the H5N3-could so probably still a H5N1 virus, are especially when chickens were infected. In order to prevent exactly that Tangstedter animals were slaughtered as a precaution.
Also of the motorcycles sold as Christmas roast goose Tangstedter'm no danger, explains Stormarn district Klau Ploger (SPD). "Everything you have in the freezers, you can eat calms," said the Chief Executive.Even the - not the usual - eating raw meat was safe for expert information. For other animals also there was no danger. "Pets can be petted continue in peace," says Klaus Ploger. The Tangstedter operation offers its customers before the festival, meanwhile, to spare Bratgänse of other organic-farms.
The H5N3 virus has now been demonstrated for the first time in Schleswig-Holstein. In early December veterinarians had already found him in a small poultry farm in Hesse.

More evidence of nasty flu season ahead

"Today’s report confirms that the U.S. flu season is off to early start,” CDC Director Dr. Thomas Frieden said in a statement. “It’s too early to tell how severe our season might be.

China-Chicken Fed Illegal Drugs Sent to Fast Food Chains
Published on Dec 18, 2012 by NTDTV
Chicken being fed illegal drugs are being widely distributed around China. Ending up in major fast food chains. That's according to an investigative report by state-run CCTV.
This chicken farm in China's northeast Shandong Province has been supplying chickens to one of the biggest meat distributors in China, the Liuhe Group. The farm owner says he uses a drug that makes the birds grow faster. Other drugs are added to the mix to keep away infection.
Reporter:
"Does the Liuhe Group know you feed chickens with drugs?"
[Mr. Zhang, Chicken Farmer]:
"They have never paid attention to it."
He says the drug makes the animals quickly gain weight. This speeds up the time between birth and slaughter.
[Mr. Zhang, Chicken Farmer]:
"The chickens weighing a little more than half a pound may grow to five and a half pounds within 40 days. The chicken's heart is too small to support the extremely great weight."
He says that because of the rapid weight gain, many of the chickens are often unhealthy and many die prematurely.
These growth stimulation drugs are illegal. But since the law is not enforced and the Liuhe Group does not perform inspections or quarantine, the chickens easily enter mainstream food supply.
The chickens are sold to the largest restaurant supplier Yum, which in turn supplies major food chains like KFC and McDonald.
This is not the first time that Chinese chicken farmers have come under scrutiny. In 2005 China's Ministry of Agriculture was chastised for encouraging chicken farmers to use an avian flu vaccine meant for humans.
The virus became resistant to the drug and thus was not effective when it spread to people. China's Ministry of Agriculture denied the accusations saying it had never approved the drug to be used in birds.

This chicken farm in China's northeast Shandong Province has been supplying chickens to one of the biggest meat distributors in China, the Liuhe Group. The farm owner says he uses a drug that makes the birds grow faster. Other drugs are added to the mix to keep away infection.
Reporter:
"Does the Liuhe Group know you feed chickens with drugs?"
[Mr. Zhang, Chicken Farmer]:
"They have never paid attention to it."
He says the drug makes the animals quickly gain weight. This speeds up the time between birth and slaughter.
[Mr. Zhang, Chicken Farmer]:
"The chickens weighing a little more than half a pound may grow to five and a half pounds within 40 days. The chicken's heart is too small to support the extremely great weight."
He says that because of the rapid weight gain, many of the chickens are often unhealthy and many die prematurely.
These growth stimulation drugs are illegal. But since the law is not enforced and the Liuhe Group does not perform inspections or quarantine, the chickens easily enter mainstream food supply.
The chickens are sold to the largest restaurant supplier Yum, which in turn supplies major food chains like KFC and McDonald.
This is not the first time that Chinese chicken farmers have come under scrutiny. In 2005 China's Ministry of Agriculture was chastised for encouraging chicken farmers to use an avian flu vaccine meant for humans.
The virus became resistant to the drug and thus was not effective when it spread to people. China's Ministry of Agriculture denied the accusations saying it had never approved the drug to be used in birds.

Avian flu virus learns to fly without wings
21 December 2012
- Potentially fatal bird flu viruses can spread on the wind, a hitherto suspected but unproven route of transmission.
Usually, people catch bird flu through close physical contact with each otheror, much more commonly, with infected poultry.
The newly identified capacity for wind to spread it opens up a potential route by which the viruses can spread between farms.
The finding came about after Dutch researchers studied an outbreak of the avian flu strain H7N7 in poultry on Dutch farms in 2003, which resulted in 89 confirmed human infections including one death.
Computer models showed that wind patterns at the time of the outbreak explain how different genetic variants of H7N7 ended up on different farms (Journal of Infectious Diseases, doi.org/j3b).
H5N1 is the most harmful strain of avian flu, having killed 360 of 610 infected people since it was discovered in 2003. The fact that a related strain can travel on the wind suggests that H5N1 can too, says Marion Koopmans of the Dutch National Institute for Public Health and the Environment in Bilthoven, who coordinated the research project. "You must assume that this same potential is there for H5N1," she says.
Other researchers agreed that by implication, H5N1 could spread in the same way. "Because we don't know, we should assume the worst case – and the worst case is that H5N1 travels on the wind as well," says John McCauley, a bird flu researcher at the MRC National Institute for Medical Research in London.
He says it's well known that the virus that causes foot and mouth disease in cattle and pigs travels many kilometres on the wind, but it's lighter than avian flu and is produced in huge amounts by infected animals. McCauley says the most likely scenario for bird flu is that the virus hitches a ride on airborne particles from farms, especially particles of infected faeces from poultry farms. http://www.newscientist.com/article/dn23029-avian-flu-virus-learns-to-fly-without-wings.html
Bird Flu Virus Mutation is Mysterious
Author: Cornelius Eko Susanto | Friday, December 21, 2012
JAKARTA - MICOM: Until now the government has yet to determine the origin of the H5N1 virus attacks the sub-variant ( clade ) which caused the death of hundreds of thousands of ducks in Java. Tracking the origin of infection is important, because the ground will be the most accurate in determining management policy. " Tracing the beginning of the outbreak in ducks into PR (homework) researcher at the Ministry of Agriculture, "said Secretary Emil Agustiono Komnas Zoonosis when contacted on Friday (21/12) .
As proclaimed earlier, the initial attack by the virus clade occurred only in ducks in Brebes, Central Java, around the beginning of December. Incidentally city located on Java's north coast region is famous as the center of commodity-producing salted eggs. Emil found, epidemiologically disease, tracing the origin of the outbreak can be started from this city. Now there are two possible causes strong H5N1 virus clade 2.1 into clade 2.3.2. possibility first, there has been a local mutation in the H5N1 virus that has been there in the duck's body. As we know, almost all of Indonesia's bird flu is endemic. Ducks itself actually quite carier H5N1 virus, which means that although the virus body, but does not cause onset (illness).
With the mutation, the virus becomes more virulent and caused the deaths of hundreds of thousands of ducks that were previously immune. possibility of transmission of the two is from the outside, the transmission could be due to the import of poultry from countries infected with or transmitting viruses occur from the migration of wild birds. commented Emil, the two possible origins transmission should be investigated. If transmission occurs due to mutation of the virus, then you need to know what factors are causing it to happen and the extent of the movement of movements? Conversely if there is contagion from abroad, then imported poultry should be closed or watch migrating wild birds.
