JAKARTA, April 2 (Xinhua) -- A 22-month toddler in Indonesia's West Sumatra
province has been tested positive of bird flu, which already killed 107 people
in the sprawling archipelago, health officials said Wednesday.
The toddler was among three patients at the Muhammad Djamil Hospital in the
provincial capital of Padang who were being treated for allegedly developing
bird flu symptoms.
"We have not received results from blood tests of two other patients from a
Jakarta laboratory," provincial health office head Rosnini Savitri was quoted by
leading news website Detikcom as saying.
The two other patients are a 29-year-old woman and a 21-month baby girl,
she said.
Indonesia has so far confirmed 133 bird flu cases in human -- and with 107
deaths, it becomes the worst affected country.
