To date it has been rare for bird flu to make people sick. However the virus can evolve and when a human infection happens, there is always a strong chance that the virus will mutate and we will get human to human infection. For this reason, if bird flu is suspected in a population of domestic birds these are all destroyed.

What is bird flu and can it be transmitted to humans?

People can get bird flu fairly easily from contact with sick birds or their saliva or feces. This is very rare worldwide, however, so far. Additionally, it is almost never passed from human to human, only very rare cases have been reported to have been transmitted that way. It is a property of the individual influenza viruses that determines how easily it is transmitted. H1N1/09, for example, is very contagious and easily transmitted from person to person, while H5N1 is not.
