how could these experts make such a simple mistake in identification?
http://businessmirror.com.ph/home/regions/7413-zamboanga-pigs-die-of-swine-flu-virus.html ZAMBOANGA CITY—The death of a dozen pigs last week in barangay Vitali, 72 kilometers east of this city, was caused by mainly swine flu and not the Ebola Reston virus as earlier feared by people in the city. This was the finding of a team of experts from the Department of Agriculture (DA), city veterinarian and city health offices that went to Vitali and conducted an on-site investigation. |
