Avian Flu Spreads in Asia

In 1997,the H5N1 avian flu virus made a jump to humans for the first time in Hong Kong. In 2003,the same flu strain broke out in South Korea and rapidly spread to Southeast Asia.Almost all of the human cases of bird flu were caused by coming into direct contact with infected birds.The H5N1 strain of influenza is fatal to human since humans do not have immunity to that strain of the virus.Fortunately,the H5N1 strain of bird flu is not easily transmissible between human yet, but experts fear that as the number of infected human increases,the virus may mutate. If the H5N1 mutates into a form that can jump from human to human easily,it will become a major human flu pandemic.
