If it happened once, it will happen again... Note that the mutations did NOT make the virus significantly less deadly, which is more than bothersome.

WHO officials said that an entire family that contracted the virus died; however, there was no possibility of an epidemic. It was rumored that a woman became infected with the bird flu virus from a chicken and spread it to the rest of her household. The virus was then transmitted to the father from his son. Because of this, the virus mutated twice. The deadly H5N1 strain of the bird flu virus first emerged in Asia in 2003. Since then it has claimed approximately 130 lives across the world. ------------------------ Yahoo! Groups Sponsor --------------------~--> Something is new at Yahoo! Groups.
