Finally, Dowell's cell phone rang. As he feared, the mother had died from a deadly bird flu strain called H5N1. The next step for Dr. Dowell and his colleagues was to determine how mother and daughter had caught the flu - and if they'd passed it on to others. The experts retraced the victims' last few hours, step-by-step. After helping her uncle bury some dead chickens, the girl developed a stomachache and a high fever, Dowell learned. She couldn't walk and was vomiting blood. Her mother worked nearly four hours away in Bangkok, Thailand's capital. She hurried home to look after her sick daughter. She sat at her daughter's bedside. She kissed and held her through the night. Early the next morning, the young girl died. The mother soon became sick and died, too. —When Birds Get Flu and Cows Go Mad!, John DiConsiglio Which evidence helps answer the question “Did the girl spread flu to her mother?” Check all that apply. “Dowell’s cell phone rang.” “The mother had died from a deadly bird flu strain.” “After helping her uncle bury some dead chickens, the girl developed a stomachache.” “She sat at her daughter’s bedside.” “She kissed and held her through the night.”
