The bird flu caused by virus H5N1 is highly virulent. It can be transmitted from birds to humans. More than 50% of humans infected have died.
When the virus evolves to be transmitted from humans to humans, we will have a pandemic and millions of people will die.
Areas like schools and campuses will be the most impacted.
Here are the steps that each of us needs to follow:
-Get informed, go on the Barry website.
-Avoid crowded areas
-Purchase supplies
-Get your Flu shot
-Report to the hospital, if ill.
These steps may save your life.
