I don't think there is a vaccine for bird flu being as it's a new thing and all. They would treat it the same as regular flu, the most important thing to stay hydrated, if needed they would give you I.V. fluids at the hospital. It is only transmitted from bird to person and is not yet transmitted from person to person.

Listen to the news. TAMIFLU is the drug and it is under severe scrutiny by the FDA today.
