The Mexican government has strongly denied that the man died "from BirdFlu", stating that he suffered from a number of serious comorbidities and had been in hospital for at least 3 weeks prior to his death.

The victim had no history of exposure to poultry or other animals but had multiple underlying medical conditions and had been bedridden for three weeks, for other reasons, prior to the onset of acute symptoms, the WHO said.
Mexico's health ministry said the person had chronic kidney disease and type 2 diabetes.
Personally speaking, I'll be taking anything excreted from the WHO with a bucket of salt.

This particular strain has never been found in a human before.
