No, men just get Man Flu, which is possibly one of the most dreaded and debilitating conditions in the known universe, guaranteed to have the sufferer laid up in bed for days (if not weeks), relying on his female to care for him, only to make a miraculous recovery when his favourite footie team are playing at home.
It's a terrible thing...

According to some the bird flu variation has much stronger physical symptons than the man flu strain. Bird flu includes runny nose, fever, sore throat and many other unpleasant symptoms whereas the man flu variety is more a psychosomatic illness whereby the patient (always male) believes himself to be ill regardless of the existance of physical evidence.

birds get bird flu. , just 6 or seven cases of bird flu on ppl in the past century, and like 1 in this one.. and yes it was a lady but it could be anyone who is directly in touch with a bird with bird flu and apart from that gets cut or eats with dirty hands or goes to the loo and handles him or herself without washing hands first. which is very unlikely but possible...... then is the media, the media made bird flu so the company who makes the remedy gets shits of loads of money out of ur psychosis,,,

Anyone can get it, best way to avoid it , wash your hands with soap and water, stay away form sick people as much as possible and live a healthy lifestyle. If you get it try not to infect others, drink plenty of fluids and get lots of rest.
