A reader of The Wryneck has submitted this headline from a recent edition of The Sun newspaper in its coverage of the virus infection on board a cruise ship in the Atlantic. The report indicates that the bug came from rats which were scuttling about a landfill site where birders were on the look-out for rare gulls which frequently scavenge such habitats. But the headline seems to be a 'downer' on birders, implicating them, as much as the rodents, for the infection.
