So then you're suggesting that it is already virulent, has already infected lots of people, and they haven't gotten sick?

If you're not then you pretty much are suggesting that since the breakout started a lot of poultry workers have contracted it and not gotten sick enough to get into the reporting system.

Given that over half the people that get this flu DIE I just can't believe that lots of people have gotten it and not gotten sick. Haven't been able to find any articles that even remotely suggest this might be happening. They are testing every poultry worker who gets suspiciously sick for H5N1.

Ridiculously low fatality numbers have started floating around in the last few days. It is likely the governments would love to document what you suggest is happening to calm their populaces.
