Bird Flu

Bird Flu (also known as Avian Influenza) is an infectious disease caused by a group of Influenza A viruses that primarily affects birds, including chickens, ducks, and wild birds. Bird flu viruses can also spread to humans, causing severe respiratory illness. Careful monitoring of birds for potential signs of bird flu and preventing contact between birds and humans is critical to reduce the risk of human illness. Treatment of bird flu requires early detection and prompt medical attention, including supportive care and the use of antiviral medication.
