bird flu
our folks here in germany are concerned with our upcoming trip to asia, straight to bird flu haven. the irony is that the bird flu virus, H5N1, has been found in a domestic cat… in rügen, a german island off the east coast where we spent last year’s summer holiday. yikes!
if the bird flu virus indeed was the cause the cat’s death, that means that the virus is already capable of crossing species. what are the chances that such a pet transmits the disease to humans?
scary.
