Virtually all cases have involved close contact with sick birds. Human-to-human transmission of H5N1 is extremely rare, though health officials suspect that a mother in Thailand contracted the disease by cradling her sick daughter. The big long-term threat is that the H5N1 bug will acquire the ability to jump from person to person and trigger a flu pandemic affecting millions around the world.

So far, that possibility doesn't appear to be imminent. The 18 new Vietnam cases weren't clustered around a single village or province but instead dotted across a large area in Vietnam, according to the person familiar with the matter. A cluster of cases would be more troubling because it could mean that the bug had moved from person to person.
