MORE QUESTIONS ON SUPPOSED 'SWINE FLU'

The mysterious virus in China has now killed 38 people and infected 206, and answers on how to stop it, or even what it is, seem to be more elusive than ever. The World Health Organization has recommended that further testing be conducted to nail down the identity of the pathogen, and Steve Mitchell reports that some experts are suggesting it could actually involve Ebola or Bird Flu.
