Having been here when SARS was a problem and seeing the slow response and denial of potential problem by the old gits in Beijing this one worries me more and more.

I have been following a number of news stories here in China and the response by the OG's is still the same, they think they can control it.

This article is quite frightening and I do not know whether it is scare mongering in order to sell the book or whether this man has hit the crux of the problem in that birds migrate and soon we will be in the migration season.
