What is the transmission of avian flu?

Answer 1

Avian flu, primarily caused by influenza A viruses, is primarily transmitted among birds, particularly poultry, through direct contact with infected birds, their droppings, or contaminated environments. Humans can contract the virus through close contact with infected birds or contaminated surfaces, though human cases are rare. The virus can also spread via respiratory droplets in some instances. Preventative measures include biosecurity practices in poultry farming and minimizing contact with wild birds.
