Don't Sue the Messenger

ProMED-mail reprints The Jakarta Post on yet another howler from Indonesia:

The parents of 3 young children from North Sumatra's Karo regency who were earlier reported as exhibiting classic bird flu symptoms plan to sue the provincial administration and the central government for saying their children most likely had bird flu.


I believe this is the same area where angry poultry workers drank chicken blood to protest earlier diagnoses. Suing is, at least, more sanitary.
