Reuters snip: The World Health Organisation, holding a meeting with the World Bank and others to coordinate funding to battle bird flu, said on Monday the lethal H5N1 strand of the virus responsible so far for the death of humans was spreading fast.

It was only a matter of time before an avian flu virus acquired the ability to be spread between humans, and this could kill between 100,000 and 200,000 people in the United States alone should it unleash a pandemic, it added...

The bird-flu virus has recently moved from Asia to eastern Europe and is expected to move into the Middle East and Africa anytime soon.
