Indonesia MOH Update Comments

There comes a time, when my BS meter just explodes, and I find myself down on the floor, wiping up the mess. Today, we received an update from the Ministroy of Health in Indonesia, regarding the latest confirmed case.
Bangkulu Regency, in Sumatra. MF (24). The update from the authorities reads...

Symptoms of fever cases since February 23, 2012. He then admitted to hospitals for treatment and DR. M. Jonah the next day. Because of cough, shortness of breath, and accompanied by a decrease in consciousness, then the case was transferred to the intensive care unit (ICU). Finally, the case died on March 1, 2012 at 22:45 pm.

So, am I to believe that you want me to read and agree with your statements? Maybe not. Maybe....you just want me to read them. Because if I have to actually think about what it says, I find myself on the floor picking up the pieces of my BS Meter.

Things are getting dicey out there, because the H5N1 Bird Flu virus has apparently infected a person on the 23rd of February and was admitted on the 24th. Somewhere between the 24 and the 28, he developed a cough, shortness of breath and lost consciousness, or a decrease in consciousness. He was dead by March 1st.

Mind you, this person worked at the hospital he was admitted to!!!

Another article that we posted here, had these dates. Not admitted the next day at all...:

As reported yesterday, MF (24), who died Friday (2/3) note the recent positive bird flu virus. MF (24) day-to-day work in the RS M Yunus. Deputy Director of Field Services Secretary RSMY, Dr. Lista Cerly Viera, the MM was treated for two days in isolation rooms RSMY since Wednesday (29/2).

And it speaks of a very fast moving virus. An advanced stage, on the brain, in 6 days?

Victim condition is severe enough so that treatment had to be done in isolation. Condition of the victim has reached an advanced stage and less likely to be saved because the virus was on the brain.

Another article that we posted here, has this information:

A resident of Bengkulu died from bird flu. Meanwhile, a toddler also was being treated for fever-like symptoms of bird flu in the Hospital Doctor Muhammad Yunus, Bengkulu.
Certainty of the death of a patient due to bird flu was discovered at the hospital, after the initials MP victim died on March 1 last. It's in the can after twice sending samples to the laboratory research and development of the Ministry of Health Jakarta.

MS was known to spend a lot of time at his Grandmother's house:

"MF is often stay at her grandmother's house in the Village of Garden Dahri [Kelurahan Kebun Dahri] so the area was also sprayed the day this, "added Arif.

but they have him down as dying on 6/3...

Resident Unib Permai, MF died on Tuesday (6/3) are known to be positive by the virus.

I have the "onset" down as 2/23. Unfortunately, I cannot find the article that I got it from. It sure would make more sense. I also have an admissionn date of 2/29, not 2/24 as the Ministry of Health has proclaimed.
