I'm not small as I think I am. In the company in the competition spank. Rearrange. 2003 more than 700 human cases on avian influenza or bird flu as we all knew in the media. Reports It's affecting 60 countries around the world sadly once again the virus has hit the headlines in Central Europe members are British forces Germany as well as those based in central Europe are being asked to remain vigilant now in Mari is from the Environmental Health and British forces Germany and he's been talking to me looks a bit about what you need to be looking out for at the moment there is in Germany no break which is causing considerable damage to commercial bird flocks to producers and it's on this basis that the controls have been put in place so. I think that the migrating Well that's what's bringing it into the country is relieved of the started in Russia and it's been introduced from there with the migrating flocks. And the acts on the birds. Particularly serious condition in which. Is very low in fact we're. Health Organization is said to humans or it can't be ruled out the likelihood is low based on even evidence that they have to date so it's not presently considered a threat to human health but like most viruses in particular emotionally viruses they're able to mutate rapidly and they could become a threat to human health. System has been created whereby if you find a bird in your garden is dead and we're talking here about the larger birds the migratory birds mainly geese and ducks in Germany they've carried that on a bit to talk about the native birds that would pretty. Particular if you find one of those birds in your garden is to cover it to protect it from being scavenged if you will by mystic pets and inform your housing estate manager I was in the state manager will through the service liaison offices with German authorities who make arrangements to have it collected and disposed of. But of course cats and dogs get flu as well various strains and so again it's a case of minimizing the possibility of introducing mutated strain they worry about . If there are infections in the egg production industry they're destroyed at source if you were to get into the system cooking them would destroy the virus. Ily ily. Ily ily.
