Not yet. We simply don't know what will happen.
The bird flu, so far, cannot be transmitted human to human, so we're pretty safe from it.
If/when it does mutate to be able to pass from human to human, it may also change in other ways, and may not be as deadly as it now is. Besides, the human population may develop some resistance by then, one way or another.
Also, if/when it does break out in Asia, it is customary to start making a vaccine to prevent it by the time it works its way around to us. This may not help much in Asia, and it's not totally foolproof, but it should cut down on casualties.
I don't know, but I'd guess they are already working on a vaccine against the present form, which, though not very good for preventing the expected mutated form, could provide some crossover immunity and reduce the severity of the outbreak.

I think I'm more afraid of terrorists getting ahold of a nuclear suitcase and detonating it in the US, than I am afraid of Bird Flu !

i'm now no longer terrified of lack of existence, stopped being afraid at about 19 or 20. i assume it truly is a steady procedure. i'm no longer welcoming it with open hands both, it is merely that, come it ought to. with somewhat of success, it is going to come authentic late in existence. it truly is likewise completely organic and accepted and not in any respect incorrect in any respect to cry for the loved ones who're lifeless and lengthy gone and to wish for them too. Koran warns us even with the actuality that, that we ought to imagine of ourselves in the course of the grieving procedure too, because the Angel ought to go back for your door back and back. (he's the guy who takes your soul away, i will not in any respect undergo in ideas his call, and do not really care to). Edit:@ Imane the Muslim, i don't have self belief you're merely 11. you may be fairly sarcastic for an 11 year previous, yet you're smart too. LOL
