Indonesia: Bird Flu Update

My colleague Bryan Walsh in Hong Kong has a detailed update on the family in northern Sumatra that has been struck down by bird flu. As he reports, the next week and a half will be critical. If there are no more cases of avian flu among the people who came in contact with ailing family members, "then the outbreak at Kubu Sembilang will likely be judged contained."
