A medical expert working on the investigation of COVID-19 in America and its future growth has warned that if its spread is not stopped in time, then the outbreak of avian flu (H5N1) will take the form of a pandemic . . Dr. Deborah Birx, who served as White House coronavirus response coordinator during Donald Trump’s administration. He spoke about this illness to CNN. It was explained in detail that this disease can spread quickly in dairy and poultry farms.
can take the form of an epidemic
Reporter Pamela Brown asked: Do you think it’s only a matter of time before there’s a full-blown pandemic here? To which Birx replied: Well, of course, we are preparing here for that eventuality. The veteran health official further explained that the initial responses to the more than 60 human cases detected this year reminded him of the early approach used to combat the novel COVID-19 virus.
This disease spreads quickly from human to human
I hear the same words from the CDC…low risk of human-to-human transmission. Have we heard from the WHO about Covid? [विश्व स्वास्थ्य संगठन] And you haven’t heard from the CDC? So I think our way to solve this problem is to use 21st century technology. And remember, it was the private sector that gave us the tests. He said remembering.
In a few weeks, we went from 20,000 tests to two million tests. So if we involve the private sector in our response, they will help us carry out testing in all dairy farms and poultry farms. Where they can test both the chickens and the people who came into contact with the chickens. And then we will know how far this virus has spread.
