Remind me not to do that

CNN.com - Bird flu kills Vietnamese man - Jan 21, 2005

Hadn't noticed, but there's another bird flu outbreak in Asia. Seven people have died in the last three weeks -- it's not clear if that's all in Vietnam, like this one, or continent-wide -- of the disease.

The man's younger brother has also tested positive for the virus, and is being treated in hospital.

Diu said that a week before the older brother developed a high fever and coughing, the family slaughtered a duck and ate blood pudding made from it.

Duck blood pudding, huh? Not popular in these parts, but whatever floats your duck... uh, boat.
