(NaturalNews) The World health Organization (WHO) has warned that it may be possible to contract the avian flu without coming into direct contact with infected poultry.In a report published in the New England Journal of Medicine, WHO researchers examined all 350 known cases of infection with the H5N1 strain of influenza, known popularly as “bird flu.” Approximately three-quarters of these cases could be attributed to close contact with infected birds, often by poultry workers. A very few cases of human-to-human transmission are suspected, always between family members who came into close contact with each other. But the rest of the cases were more ambiguous.”In one quarter or more of patients with influenza A (H5N1) virus infection, the source of exposure is unclear, and environment-to-human transmission remains possible,” the researchers wrote. Some of the unclear cases occurred in people whose only contact with birds was walking through live poultry markets.The authors speculated that the virus may remain active in fertilizer made from bird feces, or in certain fluids that stick to surfaces eventually touched by humans. The question has also been raised as to whether the virus needs to enter the nose or can infect humans by merely being eaten.”It is unknown whether influenza A (H5N1) virus infection can begin in the human gastrointestinal tract,” the researchers wrote. “In several patients, diarrheal disease preceded respiratory symptoms, and virus has been detected in feces.”The report confirmed government reassurances that well-cooked food is not a source of the disease, but cautioned that non-potable water might be: “Drinking potable water and eating properly cooked foods are not considered to be risk factors, but ingestion of virus-contaminated products or swimming or bathing in virus-contaminated water might pose a risk.”Bird flu is a highly lethal strain of the influenza virus, killing 61 percent of the people that it has infected. Scientists fear that it might mutate into a variety that passes easily to and between humans, with catastrophic public health consequences.

Eight People Bought Rich iPhone App Before Crackdown
At least eight people have a blinged-out iPhone, but they may be the only ones. Apple has removed the “I Am Rich” application from its App Store. The program cost $999 and its sole purpose is to show people the owner has money. The program creates a red icon that sits on the iPhone deck with a the words “I Am Rich” underneath. After the user activates the application, it glows on the handset like a ruby. Apple initially approved the application, which bumps up against the pricing limit for applications sold on its App Store. The company was not immediately available for comment on why it decided to pull the plug on the application. Six people from the U.S., one from Germany, and another from France are sporting red-gemmed iPhones, according to developer Armin Heinrich. Heinrich claims the gem includes a “secret mantra.” “The application really does nothing. It’s about teaching you, in theory, how to become rich through a mantra of some sort. It really was a functionless, useless application that served no one other than the developer. Unsuspecting people bought it for $1,000 maybe hoping to get something in return,” asserted Michael Gartenberg, an analyst at Forrester Research. Easy To Purchase Gartenberg doesn’t think many people would spend $1,000 on an application for the iPhone anyway, but there were some complaints that it was easy to purchase it by mistake through the App Store’s one-click system. At least one App Store visitor thought the “I Am Rich” application was merely a joke and clicked on the “Buy App” button for a surprise. “Apple has said from day one that it was going to, in some sense, police the App Store in terms of questionable content that might be violating other people’s content and trademarks and services,” Gartenberg said. “In this case, this…
