12 Feb 06 The potentially deadly strain of H5N1 bird flu reached western Europe, with outbreaks reported in Italy and Greece, as well as Bulgaria, while the death toll increased in Asia.
There were more disturbing signs in Nigeria, where the first outbreak on the African continent was reported earlier this week, that the virus is spreading. Meanwhile the bird flu death toll rose in Asia with the announcement Saturday of the death of a 27-year-old Indonesian woman who had tested positive, according to hospital staff. Italian Health Minister Francesco Storace said the highly pathogenic strain, responsible for the deaths of some 90 people, mainly in Asia, had been found in a total of 21 dead swans on the island of Sicily and elsewhere in the south of the country. |
