Pandemic Outbreak
or Avian Flu:
Avian influenza is an infection caused by avian
(bird) influenza (flu) viruses. These influenza viruses occur naturally
among birds. Wild birds worldwide carry the viruses in their intestines,
but usually do not get sick from them. However, avian influenza is
very contagious among birds and can make some domesticated birds,
including chickens, ducks, and turkeys, very sick and kill them.
Usually, “avian influenza virus” refers
to influenza A viruses found chiefly in birds, but infections with
these viruses can occur in humans.
