Re: Bird Flu - will it be headless chickens or a dead duck?

Avian flu has been around in the Far East for several years and has only killed about 80 people. When you consider the amount of people who contracted SARS in a very short space of time, it suggests that this virus is nowhere near as virulent. I don't deny that there is a possibility that it could mutate to become more virulent but as usual, the government and the media are hyping this up.... It's making me wonder if we are being deliberately distracted in order for the gov't to bury some bad news..

Re: Bird Flu - will it be headless chickens or a dead duck?

It does worry me, I have to admit, the reason being that I am one of those most at risk, having lousy asthma. If I got avian flu, the chances of my surviving are quite small, and I do still like the thought of a world with me in it! It has happened before, and the likelihood is that it will happen again, perhaps not this year, but certainly at some point. Pumping chickens full of antibiotics won't help, because antibiotics are not effective against viruses, which is what flu is. In 1918 more American servicemen in Europe were killed by Spanish flu than had died in the whole of their involvement in WW1. Puts it in perspective, doesn't it.

Re: Bird Flu - will it be headless chickens or a dead duck?

on the news tonight- a parrot in quarantine in the u.k. has died of bird flu,they aint sure which strain of it yet. i would have thought they would have a ban of the import of birds whilst this disease is rife on the continent,but obviously NOT.
