I've expressed skepticism about the avian flu gloom and doomers (not recently, admittedly) but I have to say this is arrant bullshit. 50 more doesn't make it closer to humanizing?

There is no need to be overly concerned, the World Health Organization (WHO) announced, explaining the increase in human cases of bird flu in Turkey does not increase the risk of contagion.

There is no change in terms of the possibility of humans becoming infected with the bird flu virus, said Klaus Stohr, a WHO official, in an interview with NDR radio station.

Mr. Stohr, working as a coordinator in the WHO's influenza program, told the increase in reports of human cases of bird flu is linked directly to the lack of necessary precautions being taken, adding that a total of 50 Turkish people may have been infected with the bird flu virus.
