A Hot Zone In The Heartland: "There's a fast-spreading avian flu virus killing millions of chickens in Asia, and it has mutated into one that is transmitted among humans.

An American businessman from Chicago completes a deal in Hanoi and flies back to O'Hare, the busiest airport in the world.

In any case, there have been no reports of a flu outbreak in Vietnam."
