Avian influenza update

Many people have arrived in this blog by following a link from my webpage of avian flu resources. Welcome, if this includes you. One person has even followed the link to the Braybrooke Morris Dancers site - thank you!

Recent-ish things I have noticed are:

BMJ news item on the risk to east Asia, and the MRC sponsored visit of UK people.
A BMJ report on the House of Lords Select Committee on Science and Technology, which has heard evidence that surveillance needed to identify the transmission of the virus from poultry to humans is not in place.

My page at http://www.le.ac.uk/li/khn5/birdflu.html is there still and I have added to it since first publishing it. Things added in the most recent edit are flagged. If the page is useful to you, please use it and let others know too.
