Oh, dude, bird flu in China, like, it's a serious thing, right? The pros are... um, well, maybe it helps control the bird population? But the cons are pretty obvious - people getting sick, potential spread to other countries, you know, the usual pandemic stuff. So, yeah, not exactly a fun topic for a comedy show, but hey, gotta keep it real.
birds get bird flu by getting diseases from ship countries such as china. birds get bird flu from transported birds, so your birds catch the disease

Bird flu is another term used for avian influenza.
Swine Flu
Swine flu was first discovered in people working with pigs. Flu is a disease that is transmitted in various forms among people, pigs, and birds. Sometimes bird flu is transmitted to pigs, and sometime pig flu is transmitted to people. What actually happens is that a pig has pig flu and catches bird flu. A chromosome from the bird flu gets mixed with the pig flu and changes it to a different type of flu. Then a person with human flu catches pig flu. A chromosome with pig and perhaps bird flu mixes with the human flu. The flu is mainly human flu but contains pig and bird flu chromosomes. It got the name swine flu because people working with pigs caught it first. Because it has the pig and bird chromosomes, people with resistance to human flu, have less resistance to swine flu.
Humans and birds can die from avian "bird" flu. Up to 60% of humans who get avian flu can die.
People catch bird flu by close contact with birds or bird droppings. This is just the flu that infects birds. The bird flu that people often call the bird flu is not the same. That one is passed from person to person.Some people have caught H5N1 from cleaning or plucking infected birds. In China, there have been reports of infection via inhalation of aerosolized materials in live bird markets. And some infections have occurred in people who handle fighting cocks.There have been a few cases where one infected person caught the bird flu virus from another person -- but only after close personal contact. So far, there has been no sustained human-to-human spread of H5N1.
Bird Flu DOES affect the Blue banned bee!!
