Abstract:

Bird flu is a danger wherever people mingle with birds, especially in crowded, unsanitary conditions. For years, the H5N1 bird flu has been considered an imminent threat to public health because it can transfer from birds to humans. UNC researcher Ray Pickles is trying to find what can prevent the bird flu from becoming a pandemic.
