“The 1st case of H5N1 virus was recorded in Gudauta a week ago. Examinations have been carried out by Russian experts, who are carrying out surveillance and disease monitoring activities alongAbkhazia's coast. This information, however, has not been circulated [Probably due to the political constraints, namely sovereignty issues?! - Mod.AS>. This might be interpreted by some as a politically tainted allegation
The recording of this virus in Gudauta is linked with its spread in [neighboring, to the North West> Krasnodar territory.
The Abkhazian de facto government hides this information from the population, but people are seeking help because of massive numbers of cases of Bird Flu. >

Запрос так и остался запросом, а никакого подтверждения не было, соответсвенно самопровозглашенная республика Абхазия так и осталась «белеть» на карте мира от самопровозглашенной стерильности. А самопровозглашенный президент самопровозглашенной республики недвузначно «по блатному» намекнул: «Признаете статус Абхазии признаем статус птичьего гриппа».  Ситуация с птичьим гриппом в Абхазии едва не закончилась публичным скандалом между Эпидемиологическими Службами России и чекистами- последние и победили  и «умяли шумиху», ведь главный чекист, господин Путин велел отменить птичий грипп в Абхазии, хотел отменить и в России, но Российский Эпидем Контроль все-таки настоял на своем по крайней мере в России и все необходимые профилактичсекие меры были предприняты.
