Broad concerns about public health relate to the potential for the virus
to mutate, or change into a form that could spread from person to person. Even if it did, proper cooking kills
this virus just as it does many other disease organisms and parasites.S., it does not signal an

The highly pathogenic H5N1 strain of bird flu has been found in an
increasing number of countries in Europe, Asia and Africa.
There are a number of ways that highly pathogenic H5N1 could potentially
reach the United States -- wild bird migration, illegal smuggling of birds or
poultry products, travel by infected people or people traveling with virus -
contaminated articles from regions where H5N1 already exists. Fish and Wildlife Service, have been working for the past several months
with State of Alaska biologists to strategically sample live birds, hunter

* Prevent cross-contamination by keeping raw meat, poultry, fish, and
their juices away from other foods;

* After cutting raw meats, wash cutting board, knife, and counter tops
with hot, soapy water;

* Sanitize cutting boards by using a solution of 1 teaspoon chlorine
bleach in 1 quart of water; and

* Use a food thermometer to ensure food has reached the safe internal
temperature -- in all parts of the bird. During a pandemic, if you cannot get

you to have extra supplies on hand.

WASHINGTON , Avian Influenza (AI) -- the bird flu
-- is a disease caused by a virus that infects domestic poultry and wild birds
(geese and ducks and shorebirds). Currently, H5N1
avian influenza is not present in the United States. The remaining samples will be initially tested at labs
certified by USDA in the National Animal Health Laboratory Network.
In the event of a highly pathogenic avian flu outbreak in the United
States, USDA maintains a bank of bird vaccines to protect healthy birds
outside a quarantine area, if necessary. Fish and Wildlife Service works with USDA to
communicate these trade restrictions to the pet bird trade community and
incorporates them into decisions on permits it issues for wild bird trade.

Monitoring Human Health
At present, highly pathogenic avian influenza , such as the highly
pathogenic H5N1 strain, is a disease of birds and is not readily transmitted
to humans., the chance of infected poultry entering the
human food chain would be extremely low . Nonetheless, the HHS has been preparing for pandemic
influenza for several years.pandemicflu.usda . Patent Number Z101145165. The most recent epidemic occurred in 2001 when

birds that return to Alaska in the spring from wintering areas in the southern
