BEIJING — China reported its first three confirmed human cases of bird flu Wednesday as the government raced to vaccinate billions of chickens, ducks and other poultry in a massive effort to stop the spread of the virus.
But, then again, at least they have reported it and are working with the WHO to isolate it. In 1997...the only new we had about the bird flu at that time was through Hong Kong news...and that was strictly limited to what was going on in Hong Kong.
It may be only a 2 hour train ride away...but Hong Kong is a WORLD away when it comes to stuff like this.
