An 11-year-old girl died Friday of suspected bird flu in eastern Turkey _ days after her brother and sister succumbed to the disease. Their doctor said they probably contracted the illness by playing with dead chickens.
The condition of a fourth ill child from the same family had improved considerably and the boy was no longer attached to a respirator, said Huseyin Avni Sahin, head physician at the hospital in the eastern city of Van where the children were being treated. Three other people, however, were in serious condition, he told The Associated Press. A hospital official said up to 30 other people were being treated for possible bird flu symptoms early Friday, as Turkey's government sent medicines to the area in an effort to mobilize against a virus that appeared to be moving westward from eastern Asia.

I read in a different article they would throw the heads of dead chickens around there house for DAYS ...now that sounds like fun doesn't it...not to mention healthy:monsters-

maybe we can get a pool of winnings together here and buy them a few hundred balls to throw around....any of them make the big time, we get 23% of their signing bonus.

a ball to throw around??? I wonder if they have rubber balls in turkey even?

I mean WHERE are the parents when there kids are throwing dead chicken heads around the house


could you imagine??


daughter says "Mom?? ,yes Dear

Me and billy are going to play hit the dead chicken head into the can again ..we will try not to get any of the remaining blood on the floor

Mom says " Ok dear have fun!"

Irrespective the bad news is that there are human cases of H5N1 avian flu outside SE Asia and adjacent to Europe.

This flu is close to a worldwide pandemic in birds and I certainly don't fancy being close to any of them, especially pigeon droppings.

if this strain mutates and is virulent to humans, its gonna be like 1918 again. ucking:

One of our Canadian comedy shows likes to keep us informed on topical issues.

Thanks to them I can pass on the news that InTrade has a contract on whether H5N1 bird flu will confirmed in the US by March 31, 2006. Its under current events and the yes is available for +465.
