In Case You Thought Bird Flu Had Gone Away

It hasn't. My brother inlaw who is an infectious disease doc says to have at least three weeks supply of food in the house.
Bird flu has been recently found in cats that lived near poultry! Weehee. OTOH I recently read that this strain has been around for so long that it would have mutated to a human to human transmisible form by now. There is probably more chance of a new strain of something or other to become the next epidemic than the bird flu. In any case, the three weeks supply of food etc is always a good idea. Pick up a few cans each time you shop.
