Avian Influenza (Bird Flu):
Avian influenza (bird flu) is a disease that spreads predominantly among wild birds, and in rare cases, spreads to humans and other mammals (such as cows). Those who spend time with birds or livestock, or in spaces contaminated with the virus, are at a greater risk of infection.
