Avian (Bird) Flu

Avian flu virus H5N1 has been a major concern recently. Most humans have not been exposed to this strain of the virus, so they have not produced the necessary protective substances. A vaccine has been developed and is being made in large quantities. However, much more time is needed to manufacture enough vaccine to protect most of the human population of the world.

Most flu virus strains affect the upper respiratory tract, resulting in a runny nose and sore throat. However, the H5N1 virus seems to go deeper into the lungs and causes severe pneumonia, which may be fatal for people infected by this virus.

So far, this virus has not been known to spread directly from one human to another. As long as H5N1 does not change to another strain that can he transferred from one human to another, a worldwide epidemic of the virus probably will not occur.

3.Identify one event that could result in the virus changing to a form able to spread from human to human.
