Ry- I would be question with you as well what is happening in China.  Pneumonia is a convenient way to non-report Bird Flu outbreaks as is Dengue Fever.

The going gets rougher on this Mary. We had these people earlier as the media and .gov were telling people to be quiet as there was an Avian outbreak in a huge population center in China.

Getting doctors to test and verify Avian in China is very difficult. Many many specimens are compromised or destroyed on the way to WHO labs.

We have most certainly verified the suppression of case reporting and the actual poor situation in Indonesia. The CDC- is well - in a period of transition. \

hi Med. .. I'm thinking that the Chinese are testing and verifying, ...just not making their findings public.  The CDC is there and knowing.  But...the CDC is required by previous understanding... to abide by the Host Country's wishes, to cooperate with the Govt. descision on what and how much information ito be made public.  True, they are not reporting and we knew it would be like this, on the edge up and until the point of all H breaking loose...so as not to panic a population 3 times our own.  Sounds good to me.
 
Our  Govt./Military is well aware of the particulars.  The military has a different scale from that of the CDC... stages within stages.
