JAKARTA - Four people have been confirmed dead by avian influenza in Indonesia since January this year, head of the national bird flu commission Bayu Krisnamurthi said on Tuesday. "Four deaths by bird flu have been confirmed in January and February," Krisnamurthi told. The deaths have brought the total fatality by the virus to 117 out of 143 infected people.
Indonesia is grappling with major problems in its efforts to stop the spread of the virus, including huge territory, traditional way of rising poultry on back yard and lack of obedience of provincial administration in implementing the government decision to stop the virus spread.
