First human case of H10N3 bird flu reported in China
Chinese health officials confirmed that a 41-year-old man was the first human case of H10N3 strain of the bird flu Tuesday. By the time of the reporting, he is already reportedly being prepped for hospital release.
The man allegedly became ill April 28th. He wasn’t diagnosed until May 28th. No one else, not even his close contacts, have been infected, according to reports. The National Health Commission says that is good news.
”The risk of large-scale transmission is low,” the commission said.

The United States Army recorded and released unnerving video of a close encounter with a Chinese jet over the South China Sea. The Chinese military plane came “dangerously” close to the U.S. military aircraft in the international airspace last week, the U.S. military announced on Thursday.

The Indo-Pacific Command (INDOPACOM), the command responsible for overseeing U.S. operations in the area, said in a statement that the encounter occurred on December 21, during which a Chinese Navy J-11 fighter jet flew within 10 feet (3 meters) of a U.S. Air Force RC-135, a reconnaissance plane with about 30 people on board.
According to a U.S. military spokesperson, the Chinese jet came within 10 feet of the airplane’s wing, but 20 feet from its nose, causing the U.S. aircraft to take evasive maneuvers to avoid a collision.
