Wide cutaway of audience, Australian delegation\u003cbr/\u003eThe European Union has pledged about 120 (m) million US dollars for the fight against bird flu - about 20 (m) million US dollars more than it had initially announced last week in Brussels.\u003cbr/\u003eThe pledge was confirmed by Markos Kyprianou, the European Commission's health commissioner, on the sidelines of an international donors' conference in Beijing on Tuesday. \u003cbr/\u003e\"This is not a problem for a specific region. This is a problem that is a threat to the whole world, to the whole community. No region can feel safe,\" Kyprianou told reporters. \u003cbr/\u003eThe EU's 25 member states were also expected to pledge about 120 (m) million US dollars, he said.\u003cbr/\u003eWorld experts gathered to urge rich countries to come up with the 1.5 (b) billion US dollars (1.2 billion euros) that the World Bank says is needed to tackle bird flu and prepare for a potential pandemic in humans.\u003cbr/\u003eSpeaking on the first of a two-day conference on Avian and Human Pandemic Influenza,Turkey's Agriculture Minister Mehmet Mehdi Eker insisted on the need for international cooperation.\u003cbr/\u003e\"This is a global issue, so each country should cooperate and should not hide any information that they have. And when they have the disease, they should declare it immediately,\" he said.\u003cbr/\u003eEker, who said he hoped other countries could learn from Turkey's experience, told reporters that about 930-thousand domestic birds had been slaughtered in the past month in his country.\u003cbr/\u003eThe funding conference, co-sponsored by the World Bank, European Commission and the Chinese government, follows a global bird flu coordination meeting held two months ago in Geneva, which brought together participants from a hundred countries.\u003cbr/\u003eBased on the damage that severe acute respiratory syndrome, or SARS, caused to Asia's economy after it emerged in southern China in 2002, the World Bank says a flu pandemic in humans could result in 800 (b) billion US dollars (640 billion euros) in global losses in a year. \u003cbr/\u003eThe Beijing conference is aimed at raising money to fight bird flu, which has killed at least 79 people in Asia and Turkey since 2003.\u003cbr/\u003eAlso on Tuesday, the World Health Organisation said that Swiss drugmaker Roche Holding AG had agreed to donate another two million courses of the antiviral Tamiflu to help poor countries battling the disease. Each course has 10 pills.\u003cbr/\u003eThe new donation will be used to help poor countries treat cases of human bird flu as they develop to try to reduce the number of deaths and slow the spread of infection, said Dr. Margaret Chan, assistant director-general for communicable diseases at the WHO.\u003cbr/\u003eRoche last year donated three million courses of the drug, believed to be most effective in treating bird flu, to WHO for a global stockpile that would be distributed wherever a pandemic flu strain emerged, she said.\u003cbr/\u003eThe World Bank has said about 45 percent of the funding would be spent in Vietnam, Cambodia, Indonesia, Thailand and Laos - countries where the H5N1 virus is already endemic.\u003cbr/\u003eMost human cases have been traced to contact with infected birds, but experts fear the virus could develop the capacity to transmit easily between people, sparking a possible flu pandemic which could kill millions.\u003cbr/\u003e\u003c/span\u003e\n\u003c/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv class='action-container flex justify-between'\u003e\n\u003cbutton aria-expanded='false' aria-label='Read more description'
