:: H5N1... ::

i guess many of us are not very alien to the title... H5N1... the virus behind bird flu... everyday, there r bound to haf some news abt bird flu... many researchers even said dat this virus will wipe out abt 20%-30% of our population, if not under control... recently, they even reported dat this virus is able to immune itself from the common drugs dat we r using... i bet this is a bad news for both humans and birds...

H5N1... if u r artistic enough, somehow u can see the word "HEN" inside... keke... i wonder how did they agree to use H5N1 to label the bird flu? wat if this virus evolutes to another form? do we call it... H6N1, H5N2 or H6N2? guess i will haf to ask a life scientist or doctor...

here an interesting fact, i got from somewhere many yrs back... flu is not an illness originated from humans. in fact, it is from birds. then the flu evoluted and now it is able to be spread from humans to humans...
