BANGKOK, March 16 (AFP) - Thailand reported its eighth death from bird flu on Tuesday, saying a woman who died on March 12 was infected with the disease, in the first fatality here since mid-February.
"The health ministry has found the bird flu virus in the saliva of a woman who died on March 12," Disease Control Department chief Charal Trinvuthipong said in a statement.
Charal said the 39-year-old woman from the central province of Ayutthaya fell ill on March 1 and her condition deteriorated sharply on March 8.
"The dead woman worked at an aluminium factory, she did not keep chickens at home but her neighbour raised fighting cocks which all died in mid-February," he said.
"Her relatives also raised fighting cocks but they did not fall ill," he added. So far all the human victims of bird flu, including 15 in Vietnam, are believed to have been infected through contact with sick birds.
