How dangerous do you think is bird flu? Bird flu is potentially very dangerous. To date there have been 373 reported cases in humans with 236 deaths. That's about a 63% death rate. It is extremely difficult to catch bird flu. It requires extreme contact with sick and dead birds. Unless you raise chickens in your house or work in a market; you aren't likely to get it.

I think the potential for the bird flu being the next global pandemic is very high. |
