Re: INDONESIA - 3 bf suspects (siblings) in Sulawesi

A question.

The human samples and bird samples iin Indonesia have a different binding site sequence (suggesting that recent cases are not transmitted by poultry) yet all these outbreaks are associated with dying poultry. Is there a simple explanation for this seeming conundrum? Selection for the new sequence within each individual? Does the virus mutate that fast?

"Snow days" in Jakarta schools!

I wonder if they're also cleaning their shoes before returning home. BTW - they're returning home via public bus - no "school buses" in Jakarta. Younger children could be betting infected from older siblings tracking home chicken manure on their shoes.
