Tuesday, January 27, 2004 Mix with Human Virus Is Bird Flu's Biggest Threat - Reuters "There is no evidence the bird flu that has struck from Pakistan to Japan and killed eight people has passed directly between humans. Scientists fear if it does, this could increase its ability to mutate, possibly leading to a new virus that could spread as rapidly as human influenza, yet carry the surface proteins of an avian virus against which people have no immunity or antibodies." |
