Chicken sole bird flu source

chickens are the only known source of bird flu infection in Indonesia so far, animal health experts Thursday urged the government to focus more on combating H5N1 among poultry.

Longtime veterinarian and physician Mangku Sitepoe said although veterinarians had found H5N1 in wild fowls, pigs, flies, birds and water, the source of all human infections in the country thus far had been chickens.
