Indonesia is bird flu ‘time bomb’ - officials
AFP, april 14
Indonesia has become a bird flu “time-bomb” because of its failure to eradicate high numbers of deadly H5N1 sites, the head of the Paris-based World Organisation for Animal Health told AFP on Friday.
“It is important for the Indonesian government to take the political decision” to step up its controls, with help from international creditors, said organisation head Bernard Vallat, calling the situation a cause for “great concern”. - Sapa-AFP
