Bird Flu In Humans: Bird flu is such a flu that is not only affecting animals and birds, but is also becoming a big threat to humans. Bird flu is also called Avian Influenza. Since many people keep pets in their homes. That’s why bird flu has now become a cause of concern for humans. In Canada, a pet dog died due to bird flu. The death of the dog has put the health officials in worry. Because pet dogs often live close to humans and come in contact with them.
This pet dog was infected with bird flu after eating a wild goose in Ontario province of Canada. The dog died after his condition deteriorated due to bird flu. The Canadian Food Inspection Agency (CFIA) said an autopsy revealed that the dog’s respiratory system was badly affected. This is the first such case seen in Canada. Scientific evidence suggests that the risk of avian influenza from domestic pets is modest. However, taking it lightly can prove to be dangerous.
Humans at risk of bird flu from pets
According to a report in The Sun, the Royal Society for the Prevention of Cruelty to Animals (RSPCA) warned dog owners to keep a close eye on their pet animals while walking near the beach amid the threat of bird flu. Professor Andrew Pollard at Oxford University’s Institute of Pandemic Sciences said he was not at all surprised to see that the bird flu virus was ingested by the dog itself.
This virus has wiped out millions of birds in many countries of the world in the last two years and not only birds, it has also badly affected many animals including otters, seals, harbor porpus and foxes etc. Let us know what symptoms can be seen in humans after getting infected with bird flu.
