Risk of Bird Flu Pandemic Growing - The risk of a human influenza pandemic remains real and is probably growing as the bird flu virus becomes entrenched in poultry in more countries, health officials warned on Tuesday. The H5N1 avian flu virus has infected flocks in much of Asia, Africa and parts of Europe. Experts fear it could mutate into a form that passes easily from person to person, sparking an influenza pandemic that could kill millions.
UK's First Hybrid Embryos Created - Scientists at Newcastle University have created part-human, part-animal hybrid embryos for the first time in the UK. They were created by injecting DNA derived from human skin cells into eggs taken from cows.
Adult Stem Cells Treat Immune Disorders, Heart Disease - Treatment with adult stem cells harvested from blood or bone marrow may benefit some patients with certain kinds of cardiovascular disorders and autoimmune diseases, a new U.S. analysis shows.
Scientists Make Three Parent Embryo - Scientists in Britain claimed a first Tuesday, saying they have created a human embryo using DNA from one man and two women, which they say could help provide treatment for genetic diseases.
Indonesia Reports Over 100 Bird Flu Deaths - Indonesia, the nation worst hit by the deadly virus, has reported 101 humans killed by the bird flu. The virus is now endemic in birds across nearly all of Indonesia's 33 provinces. Humans are typically infected with bird flu by coming into direct contact with infected poultry, but experts fear the H5N1 virus may mutate into a form easily transmissible between humans, sparking a deadly global pandemic.
