Q2: |
is there any threat of bird flu in pakistan in near future if so how can we prevent it from spreading among children and animals? |
tanvir |

Ans: |
Tanvir, its pattern is not defined very clearly so its next target cant be predicted, its relationship with migratory birds has not been proven, in India it struck at Nawapur without that region being on the migratory path. The best way to fight it is by practicing hygiene and isolation. Avoiding contact with infected birds and cooking food correctly is a way to protect your family and pets. |

Q3: |
Can beaches where dead birds were found still be infected in three months if they have not been treated appropriately? |
Lada |

Ans: |
It “depends”. Virus survives for 45 plus days easily in sea water having organic matter at 16 deg C. Relative to temperature, humidity, UV rays and presence of organic material a virus survives on beaches for few hours to some months. Dead birds carry virus as long as the cells are not dried out. At 4 deg C and 40 % humidity, low UV rays the enveloped virus survives easily for at least 15 days in moist soil . In summer times at temperatures of 30+C, it won’t survive beyond a couple of days. |
