Bird Flu Jumps to Pigs Saturday, May 14, 2005 AP Clip... JAKARTA, Indonesia — Indonesian researchers have found a strain of bird flu in pigs on the densely populated island of Java (search), raising fears the virus could more easily spread to humans in the country, the government and scientists said Saturday. C.A. Midan (search), the scientist who made the discovery, identified the strain found in the pigs as H5N1, which has jumped from chickens to humans elsewhere in Southeast Asia, killing 36 in Vietnam, 12 in Thailand and four from Cambodia (search). Dr. Nana Supriatna (search), an expert staff at the Ministry of Agriculture, confirmed the virus had been found pigs but declined to give any more details. He said officials were meeting Saturday to discuss the development.
