Very informative for this layperson. Carefully explained. My take is that as a Coronation baby 1953 I MAY have some residual protection to Avian Flu should I need it. That is if age etc doesn't lower defences and I use good hygeine around any occasional bird or infected mammal contacts. Why can't our leaders in the UK message us frankly and help to present science like this. I think more young people would be inspired and become the scientists of the future.
Nice explanation on a very tricky topic - thank you. The unknowns are overwhelming for estimating a CFR for H5N1 and other bird flues. Today's "leaked" CDC analysis of the effective dose needed for H5N1 antiviral meds adds to the mystery that we are facing. Stay safe!
