Novel Coronavirus Death Toll Reaches 18 (May 06, 2013)
Novel coronavirus outbreaks are continuing on the Arabian Peninsula, and the The World Health Organization (WHO) announced May 6 that so far, it has been "notified of 30 novel coronavirus (nCoV) confirmed cases, including 18 deaths."
The WHO announcement comes after reports May 2 from the Ministry of Health in Saudi Arabia confirming three new cases of the disease. Two of the cases were from the same family, WHO reported. All the victims were reported in critical condition.
Within the past five days, there have been 13 new cases of the virus reported, including seven deaths in Saudi Arabia alone.
WHO is encouraging member states to monitor cases of severe acute respiratory infections. In a statement, WHO said it is working with international experts and countries where cases have been reported.
WHO urges member states to promptly make the proper notifications to the body when any new case of nCoV is discovered.
WHO is not yet advising screening at points of entry to the region, nor is it recommending travel or trade restrictions.
The first case of the virus was reported in June in Abu Dhabi.

Study Shows Swine Flu Infection Rising in China's Pig Farms
Study Shows Swine Flu Infection Rising in China's Pig Farms
Published on May 8, 2013
A new study on the swine flu virus is showing an increase in infection rate in pigs raised in south and southeastern China. The high infection rate is posing a risk for humans, more so with the avian flu outbreak in the region.
An international team of disease experts carried out the study by analyzing data collected at a slaughter farm in Hong Kong over a 12-year period from 1998 to 2010. The pigs were tested for the flu virus and antibodies at the time of slaughter. Analysis revealed a rise in positive antibody tests, indicating the pigs already carried the infection and became immune to tests.
Experts say the pig virus can swap genes with bird flu, generating a new hybrid flu virus. Such viruses can be deadly and lead to flu pandemics, killing millions.
A study published in the journal Science last week showed that H1N1 can swap genes with the H5N1 bird flu virus, creating a hybrid virus that can spread between mammals through the air.
The pig virus remained undetected for 10 years, until the H1N1 flu pandemic broke out in Mexico in 2009. Scientists say studies on pig flu can help prevent such outbreaks.
China generates 50% of the world's pork and has a large population of pigs. Pig farms are located in close proximity with humans and birds, increasing the risk of new flu outbreaks.
H7N9 is currently not traced in pigs, but is being closely monitored for any genetic mutations.

CDC Laboratory Works on H7N9
CDC Laboratory Works on H7N9
Published on May 7, 2013
In this video, Dr. Michael Shaw, associate director for Laboratory Science in the Influenza Division, talks about how CDC's scientists are studying the genetic sequences of the H7N9 bird flu virus. These dedicated scientists are producing results at an amazing speed -- leading to a better understanding of the virus, including what drugs can be used to treat it and how the virus might be changing. The bottom line to all this work is improving CDC's ability to protect people against this emerging public health threat. For more information, visit CDC's H7N9 webpage: www.cdc.gov/flu/avianflu/h7n9-virus.htm.

Why is avian influenza H5N1 so scary? Why was there such a furor over the H5N1 transmission studies done in ferrets? Do some scientific studies constitute a biosecurity risk? We cover all these questions, and also discuss the new H7N9 infections in China, in this final lecture for the 2013 virology course.

China bird flu causes feather shortage for shuttlecock industry

Shuttlecock manufacturers in eastern China say their businesses are under threat as the spread of the H9N7 bird-flu virus leads to a feather shortage. Chinese authorities have killed thousands of chickens, ducks and geese in an attempt to stop the virus spreading. Factories are also worried that other countries, concerned about the virus, may ban Chinese shuttlecocks.

According to a report published by The Independent on May 2, scientists are criticizing China for engaging in dangerous influenza virus research. The scientists accuse the Chinese researchers of "appalling irresponsibility" and state there is danger a new laboratory created strain of bird-flu virus mixed with human influenza may escape and create a global pandemic killing millions of people

I do NOT think this is the news bird flu that is in China...the H7N9. I am "assuming" it is the H5N1.
BOTH are very deadly though.

Chinese scientists have confirmed that the H7N9 strain has been transmitted to humans from chickens. But the WHO has said 40 percent of people infected with H7N9 appear to have had no contact with poultry.
The head of the U.S. Centers for Disease Control and Prevention said the current strain of bird flu cannot spark a pandemic in its current form - but he added that there is no guarantee it will not mutate and cause a serious pandemic

As you might expect with the bird flu scare in China that there are some companies getting seriously affected by the deadly flu virus in China. One of those companies is a major supplier to KFC and McDonald's in China, that supplier is Fu Guangming.
