I was pretty occupied with my work today and somehow I missed this important post from Mike Coston at Avian Flu Diary. Thanks Mike for your excellent views! :
" A report this morning from Sohu.com (hat tip Treyfish on FluTrackers) that indicates that Tibet’s Naqu region has seen a new outbreak of highly pathogenic H5N1 among wild birds.
In recent years we haven’t often gotten reports of large wild bird die offs out of Asia, although they were fairly common four or five years ago.
- How much of this lull is due to lower levels of the virus in wild birds (or perhaps growing subclinical - asymptomatic spread), and how much may be attributed to limited surveillance and reporting is hard to know.-"
