I think it is pretty scary that bird flu is still not contaminated. Each time you turn on the tv or read news either online or newspapers there always a section in there about bird flu.

Today, the headlight is " Bird flu strikes another province in southern Vietnam". Apparently, this is the second Mekong area city that have been struck with bird flu. The international health needs to act fast because at least 168 people worldwide died from this virus and including 42 from Vietnam. Vietnam is on my list to visit. I hope it will be contaminated before I go there.

its so scary...and wild birds cannot be contained...virtually anyone can get it if the birds have this virus and is can transmit to human.

bird flu is so dangerous since it can spread soo easily.. when people cought and breath soo scaryy i thought it had gone but it does not..

How do we get bird flu anyway? Is it by eating or just the existence of the bird being around? I've heard news on it but really never paid attention to it..I've received some pills from my company I work for just in case this gets to the US that we are prepared for it so it won't affect us from not working!!

by eating uncooked fowl meat, via air transmittion and if i not wong,their droppings can also spread the virus. but only some strains can be transmitted to humans,not all.
