AP news reports that Indonesia is wrapping up a bird flu epidemic drill. Indonesia is the most likely site of a human-to-human bird flu epidemic, so quashing an epidemic and prohibiting the travel of passengers who are ill will be especially important in Indonesia. I lived in Indonesia for a bit over a year and from what I saw, controlling bird flu on the ground will be an extremely difficult task. There is a chronic lack of enforcement of nearly every kind of regulation and the possibility to overstep the law in many cases. Nevertheless, the running of a drill in the case of a human bird flu epidemic shows that someone in government is making an honest attempt to curb an international disaster waiting to happen.
