'It is not yet clear what strain is involved in the Yorkshire outbreak. Defra said the type discovered is H5 - but not H5N1.'

That's a bit worrying.

Sigh. You are not going to die of bloody bird flu. Yes, there is a slim chance that you could develop complications and die of any flu, and yes, that chance is MARGINALLY higher with certain strains, but it's still minimal if you are a healthy person with a healthy immune system.

You're more at risk every time you get into a car. Does anyone legitimately worry about getting into a car? Or crossing the street?

*waits for inevitable, pointless, flu vaccine drive across Yorkshire*

Yet another payday for the pharma juggernaut.

If it's H5N8 then we can't get it anyway- yet, that's why the cull to stop it mutating.
If it does then there is the potential for a pandemic, most anti viral vaccinations carried out are for only 3/4 strains of influenza.
Flu is not nice for anyone, but for the very old, very young or immunosuppressed it can be particularly dangerous.

It's so ****ing sad they have to die. I really don't see why they have to. Very sad news indeed.
