BREITBART.COM - Girl Gets Bird Flu After Kissing Chicken: "Sumeyya Mamuk considered the chickens in her backyard to be beloved pets. The 8-year-old girl fed them, petted them and took care of them. When they started to get sick and die, she hugged them and tenderly kissed them goodbye. The next morning, her face and eyes were swollen and she had a high fever. Her father took her to a hospital, and five days later she was confirmed to have the deadly H5N1 strain of bird flu.
'The chickens were sick. One had puffed up and she touched it. We told her not to. She loved chickens a lot,' her father, Abdulkerim Mamuk, said of the second youngest of his eight children. 'She held them in her arms.'"
