Bird Flu and Turkey (the country)

As Avian Influenza creeps toward Europe, jokes based on the English-language meaning of the word "turkey" become less funny. But they're still a bit clever, I think.

Anyway: A second Bird Flu death from the same family in Turkey, and a half dozen other folks are showing similar syptoms.

It's still Eastern Turkey, which is quite far from Bulgaria and Greece, but it still concerns the Europeans, I'm sure. As long as people get it from birds - and it's not easily spread person-to-person, there's no huge threat.
