Latest H5N1 Indonesian death - test results being confirmed by WHO's HongKong lab
According to this report, I am very sure that the lab at which the Indonesian test results are being confirmed at is that of Dr. Lim's since his lab is the only WHO-accredited one in HongKong. I've blogged about it here and emailed the lab to enquire about opening up information to the public domain, info such as recent sequence data and subset selections from the confirmation tests. Does anyone else have any other suggestions/ideas as to how these WHO labs can help with opening up the information.. until now .. everything has been pretty much Hush Hush in terms of scientific data. - User:WorldWideHelpGroup

See the "references" and the "external links and sources" sections at the very end of H5N1 for more scientific data than you can stand. Including the COMPLETE GENOME of the H5N1 genotype that fathered this whole mess. WAS 4.250 14:56, 17 January 2006 (UTC)

The good of information and the bad of information are in a "dymamic tension". See The Definition and Measurement of Dangerous Research and Page links to the complete sequence of the Influenza A virus (A/Goose/Guangdong/1/96(H5N1)) genome. WAS 4.250 15:33, 17 January 2006 (UTC)
