The emergence of avian flu probably is tightly linked to wild birds. They most commonly harbor H9N2 but recent data shows re-assortment between H9N2 and H5N1. The genetic reservoir is becoming EXTREMELY unstable in Asia, leading to new entities with expanded host ranges (primarily driven by recombination in cells that are dually infected with two distinct viruse).

Avian flu is very hard to control nebcause migrating birds do not respect national borders and the do get around.

Influenza is a known entity and can be quite contageous and spread very quickly as seen by the 20-50 million flu deaths in the 1918 pandemic.
