Abstract

On 14 November 2007, a general practitioner in the Nijmegen region of the Netherlands called the Municipal Health Service (MHS). He reported three patients complaining of high fever, vomiting, diarrhoea, and headache, all of whom had visited a bird show in the rural town of Weurt (village of Beuningen).
