by Mike Adams, the Health Ranger, NaturalNews Editor

The British newspaper The Independent says emergency management officials are planning for an anticipated bird flu pandemic to kill up to 750,000 people in that country. The paper says officials are, among other things, looking for morgue sites that will hold more than 1,000 bodies each. The bird flu has killed at least 50 people in Asia in recent months, and world health officials say it's likely the virus will eventually spread to other regions.



Mortuaries and emergency services are to be put on alert and told to prepare for up to three-quarters of a million deaths from a bird flu pandemic, The Independent on Sunday can reveal.
