Air France crash mystery deepens Posted: 05 June 2009 1648 hrs

FERNANDO DE NORONHA, Brazil : The mystery surrounding the crash of an Air France plane off the coast of Brazil deepened after Brazilian officials said items they had pulled from the sea were not in fact debris from the downed Airbus. The search by ships for wreckage from Air France flight AF 477, which came down early Monday as it was flying from Rio de Janeiro to Paris with 228 people on board, continued in a zone where confirmed items from the plane had been spotted earlier in the week. "Up to now, no material from the plane has been recovered," Brigadier Ramon Cardoso, director of Brazilian air traffic control, told reporters in the northeastern city of Recife late Thursday. That contradicted a statement Cardoso made earlier Thursday when he said a pallet and two buoys plucked from the Atlantic by navy crews were the first pieces of the Air France crash. In fact, Cardoso admitted later, they were nothing more than sea "trash," probably from a ship, as was a big oil patch originally described as a fuel slick from the French jet. Several Brazilian navy vessels are looking for debris from the plane, including a seat and a big chunk of what appeared to be fuselage, sighted by air force aircraft on Tuesday and Wednesday. Defense Minister Nelson Jobim has said there was "no doubt" that the debris spotted from the air came from flight AF 477, and that they marked the area close to where the plane hit the ocean. The French government, which is in charge of the probe into the crash, has sent investigators to Brazil to inspect any debris that could be recovered from the zone, around 1,000 kilometers (600 miles) off-shore, and take them back to France. Speculation over what caused the accident has ranged from a massive, lightning-packed storm in the area at the time, to turbulence, to pilot error or a combination of factors. No mayday call was received from the plane, just a series of data transmissions signaling it had lost power and then had either broken up or gone into a fatal dive. Memorial services were held Wednesday in Paris and Thursday in Rio for those on board the plane, though no bodies have been spotted at sea. Many relatives of the passengers attended, but others declined, refusing to give up hope that somehow, despite the evidence, their loved ones had survived. Brazil's air force late Thursday invited the Brazilian relatives to its center of operations in the northeastern city of Recife to observer developments. Some of the relatives have said they wanted to go to Fernando de Noronha, a Brazilian archipelago 400 kilometers (250 miles) into the Atlantic that is serving as a forward base for the search and initial collection point for any debris or bodies that might be recovered. "There is no need to go to Fernando de Noronha because all the same information is available in Recife," a spokesman for the air force-run air control center said. The city has prepared a morgue and debris inspection area for anything found. Jobim said Wednesday that "if necessary, the air force may possibly organize an overflight of the search zone" for the families. - AFP/vm

Singapore's H1N1 flu cases rise to 11 By Pearl Forss, Channel NewsAsia | Posted: 03 June 2009 2202 hrs

SINGAPORE: The Ministry of Health (MOH) confirmed another three Influenza A (H1N1) cases on Wednesday, bringing the total number of people infected in Singapore to 11. The 9th patient is a 19-year-old Singaporean student returning from the US for the summer holidays. She arrived on 28 May from New York via Tokyo on All Nippon Airways NH901 at 2340 hours on 28 May. The MOH says no one else needed to be quarantined as the case developed more than 24 hours after disembarkation, hence she was assessed to be non-infectious during the flight. The 10th and 11th patients were on the same flight as the 7th confirmed case, a 30-year-old Australian male tourist who was seated at row 54 on Singapore Airlines SQ25 which arrived in Singapore from New York via Frankfurt at 0618 hours on 1 June. The 10th patient is a 33-year-old Singaporean woman who took a taxi to Tan Tock Seng Hospital after developing symptoms. She was in New York from 23-30 May and was seated at row 19 on SQ25. She was admitted to Communicable Disease Centre 2 (CDC2) at Tan Tock Seng Hospital (TTSH) before midnight on 2 June. The 11th patient is an 18-year-old American woman. She was seated at row 57 on SQ25. She developed symptoms in the afternoon of 2 June, took a taxi with her relative to seek medical attention at Raffles Hospital's Emergency Department in the evening and was sent to CDC, TTSH via a 993 ambulance. She was admitted to CDC2 in the early hours of 3 June. Contact tracing has been initiated for the 10th and 11th confirmed cases. Passengers seated within rows 17 to 21 and 57 to 59 on SQ25 on 1 June who have not been contacted by MOH yet should call the MOH hotline at 1800-333 9999. The MOH is expanding the list of "affected areas" to include Melbourne and the State of Victoria in Australia, Kobe and Osaka in Japan, and Chile, besides USA, Canada and Mexico. Affected areas are those with clear evidence of widespread community transmission. The number of cases in the State of Victoria, particularly in its capital, Melbourne, has been rising rapidly, with the number of cases doubling to reach almost 400 over the last two days. For Japan, more than 90 per cent of its cases are found in the two cities of Kobe and Osaka. For Chile, the government has announced that H1N1 is entrenched in the community and mitigation measures have replaced containment efforts. Indications are that there is widespread infection throughout the Chile, although a large majority of cases are found in the capital city, Santiago. MOH advises the public to avoid non-essential travel to these affected areas. So far, all the 11 cases in Singapore are imported and have a travel history. There is currently no evidence of community spread. - CNA/ir
