UN: Bird flu virus "only two mutations away" from global pandemic

"I wake up every morning thinking that today could be the day that I will see a report about a strange case of bird flu among humans," said Dr David Nabarro, who heads the UN drive to contain the virus, to a radio audience.

Dr. Nabarro said that everyone should prepare for a worldwide pandemic "as if this will happen tomorrow."

In a separate interview, Dr. Nabarro explained in detail how the recent spread of bird flu into Turkey, the Mideast, Europe and Africa greatly increases the chance of an immediate human pandemic.

"Unfortunately, we cannot tell when the mutation might happen, or where it might happen, or how unpleasant the mutant virus will turn out to be," he said in an interview. "Nevertheless, we must remain on high alert for the possibility of sustained human-to-human virus transmission and of a pandemic starting at any time." (14-Feb-06) Permanent Link
