Bird Flu

Bird Flu Cases in China are Rising

I wrote about  this in Weekly Medical Tips, but it seems that the numbers are rising so I thought I would write about it in What's in The News Today. The number of people who have been infected from H7N9 are reaching epidemic levels. The death toll is up to 14 and 63 are known to have it. A 77- year-old woman died on Sunday from the virus. A 7-year-old child from Beijing was diagnosed with the virus on Saturday. The strain of the bird flu is spreading throughout China and possibly only a plane ride away from the U.S. The strain does not affect the birds, but they are the host that transmits the virus to humans. The flu has not yet been confirmed if it could spread from human to human or only direct contact with the bird.
