As long as we're dealing only with migratory birds being found here and there, I don't think it's a big deal, frankly. The big issue is if we start to have domestic poultry infected. Then it would start to be a problem ... a higher risk for transmission to humans.
Compared to the numbers in Asia, we do not have too many deaths at the moment.
I have to say that the (Turkish) minister of health is completely open to these issues of opportunity . . . to learn more about H5N1 in humans.
It was the same in Asia. It mainly occurred in family clusters of small size, and mainly in children.
The two brothers are a very interesting finding that may for the first time give us a chance to monitor the human response to the disease.
When we have a child infected we are giving the virus more chance to adapt to human beings, and giving it this chance could help create conditions for the emergence of a new virus.
