WHO confirm first human case
A 7-year-old girl is Myanmar's (Birmania) first human case of the potentially deadly H5N1 strain of bird flu, the World Health Organization confirmed.

The girl, who is from Shan state in the eastern part of the country, became ill in November and has since recovered.

WHO is investigating how she was infected. An outbreak of H5N1 in poultry was reported in Shan state around the time she became sick. So far, all of the people who came in contact with the girl are healthy.
