So far just one carcus on one farm where the rest of the birds were culled and the surrounding area being monitored , you can find this on thai headlines .

5 years ago, when this bird flu was first beginning to be recognised in Thailand an appeal was put out on Thai TV news that anyone who discovers a dead bird on their property should report it to the local police.

At that time we lived in Hang Dong and on one morning I found a dead pigeon on my land. It was perfectly intact and I could see no injuries or wounds on the bird, so it appeared that this bird had not died from the result of an attack by any animal.

I asked my wife to phone the police as we were told to do on the news broadcasts.

She phoned the police station in Hang Dong and explained what we had found to a policeman. His professional advice was, burn it, thank you, goodbye. He took no record of the event, never asked any details from my wife as to who she is or where we live.

I did my duty and burned the pigeon for public safety and that was that. My point is that if an outbreak of bird flu does start in any particular area of Thailand, the authorities will not have a clue that it’s there until someone becomes stricken with the disease as the authorities have no interest in taken preventative measures until the virus actually strikes.

Or, maybe, she is just another Thai female hypochondriac.

Bird flu - get it?
