Deadly bird flu strain hits Sweden

The European Union's reference laboratory has confirmed Sweden's first outbreak of the deadly H5N1 strain of bird flu, Swedish authorities said Wednesday. Experts in neighboring Denmark feared the disease had spread there, too, after a wild bird was found to be infected with an H5 subtype of bird flu. Further tests were needed to confirm it was H5N1.
