China health officials said Sunday that two more people died
in China as a result of the recent bird flu, making the death toll 13 from this virus
strain.
A total of 60 cases
of the H7N9 virus have been reported, two of which were reported on Sunday near
Beijing.
Michael O’ Leary is the head of the World Health Organization
in China, and he says their organization is expecting more cases.
It is believed that the H7N9 virus is being spread through
direct contact with infected birds.
O’Leary says that there is no evidence that shows those who
are being infected were not infected from another human.
