Bird flu virus is in Europe now

As many have expected Bird Flue continues to spread, from China to Africa and it's been detected in Europe now.

“Avian influenza is a big threat,” the U.N.’s top bird flu specialist, said Wednesday. “It is spreading throughout the world.”

Bird flu has killed 91 people since 2003. These cases have been linked to contact with infected poultry, but experts fear the H5N1 virus could mutate and possibly spark a pandemic.
