Thirteen now dead from new strain of bird flu in China!

Two more people have died in China from a new strain of bird flu, raising the death toll from the virus to 13, state media reported Sunday.


My thoughts: China is notorious for under-reporting flu infections and causalities. This particular strain of avian or bird flu is extremely deadly and if there is an outbreak going on that involves person to person transmission,  then a scenario similar to the movie 'Contagion' could ensue.
