Bird Flu Outbreak

6-9 months ago, we shared about China's children respiratory outbreak before WHO went public, which also spread to Singapore.

There are indications that human bird flu had been exported out of China this month, let's see if WHO will go public with the investigations because it will affect the travel industry.

I pray that our respiratory doctors and nurses in Singapore will be safe.

In many parks now, you can see chickens, pigeons and mynas fighting for food and territory. It's a friendly rivalry, they are not hostile like crows.
Ya, even SGH a lot of chickens now, so noisy and affects the patients' rest.

He also noted that bird flu has a “significant mortality” when it enters humans compared to COVID-19. Redfield predicts the mortality is “probably somewhere between 25 and 50 percent mortality.” NewsNation noted that the death rate for COVID was 0.6 percent.

Still, he argued, there is greater risk for the disease to be lab-grown.
