| Have they isolated it in birds/fowls? I'm assuming not in humans yet - correct???? Bird flu in humans is VERY VERY serious - have a chat with any medical personnel working in public health and their "take" on bird flu in humans will curl your hair. It's a very very very serious health threat that we will all have to deal with sooner or later, I'm afraid.

| Bird Flu They have said that it is not the strain that kills humans, but i wonder how long it will take do develop into it...Yes it has been waiting to arrive for a while now, and we have been waiting. I do have cats, put i have them in a big pen in the garden, so they dont wander off...they can only watch the birds in the trees, they have no chance of getting out and gettin one...Well i guess time will tell....but it is very serious, i know that many people have already dies in Asia....this is one thing that we cant get a jab against...
