                Jakarta, October 22, 2007 - Ministry of Health -

                A 12-year old boy, identified as "IR" from Tangerang, Banten Province,
                whom on October 10 2007 was confirmed by the test results from the

                Exposure to sick birds remains the primary source of human infection

                who keep poultry to keep their birds well away from home, and also to
                clean the cage using disinfectant or detergent at least once a week.

                If you find sick chickens or there are sudden deaths of poultry in your area,
                report it immediately to your village leader, district head, or to the district livestock office.

                People are urged to learn more about bird flu and to reduce their risk
                of contracting the virus by adopting clean and healthy behaviors:
