Bird flu risk to Indonesian quake survivors
Bird flu risk to Indonesian quake survivors

Some quake survivors on Indonesia's Java island have taken shelter in chicken sheds, exposing themselves to the risk of contracting bird flu and other diseases, a British aid group has warned.
More than 100 people left homeless by the quake were sheltering in six large poultry sheds built from bamboo in Pundong in hard-hit Bantul district, said Yolanda Bayugo, health director of the London-based Merlin group in Indonesia.
"We are concerned that people using poultry sheds as shelter are at risk from avian flu and possibly salmonella infection," Bayugo said in a statement.
