Bird Flu Update

1 minute read time

A vaccine for Avian flu, the H5V1 virus that has killed dozens in Vietnam is being tested in the United States. The flu has now been confirmed to have spread to North Korea.

This perspective on the virus from a Canadian writer is worth the read as well.

Everything I read about this virus is really scary. The big fear is that it would effectively mutate within a human host and then spread viciously through the human population. It could rapidly spread to all parts of the world potentially killing millions before an effective vaccine is found. Scientists say we are overdue for another flu pandemic. Let's hope the trials for a vaccine are successful.
