Bird Flu: Experts are worried that bird flu infections could spread quickly and become an epidemic; given their high death rate, they may end up being a hundred times more deadly than the corona virus. The media has reported on this information. According to the report, scientists fear that the H5N1 virus is headed towards a dangerous crisis and that it may spark a worldwide pandemic.
Precautions Urged to Prevent Escalation of Avian Flu Outbreak
Scientist Dr. Suresh Kuchipudi, who is studying bird flu in Pittsburgh, has issued a warning that humans are among the many mammals that might contract the H5N1 virus. According to Dr. Suresh Kuchipudi, the virus is headed towards becoming a pandemic.
He claimed that avian flu is still widespread around the world and continues to infect a significant number of animals. It is now imperative that we take precautions against it lest things get out of hand.
Doctors Warns Bird Flu Could Surpass COVID-19 in Lethality
Media sources have cited another doctor as suggesting that bird flu infections may prove to be more hazardous than the coronavirus outbreak. He asserted that the bird flu outbreak might end up being 100 times more deadly than the coronavirus outbreak. The bird flu epidemic will have a significantly greater death rate than the coronavirus epidemic, and if it starts to mutate in people, things could become worse.
Bird Flu Mortality Rate
52 individuals out of every 100 infected with the H5N1 virus since 2003 have died, according to data from the World Health Organisation. Consequently, more than 50% of H5N1 deaths occur. When the corona virus first emerged, its death rate was 20 percent in some areas; however, it eventually dropped to just 0.1 percent. There have only been 887 confirmed cases of avian flu thus far, with 462 fatalities.
