The $1.9 billion shows that the world cares greatly about the issues we face and that governments want to be sure that there is enough cash available to do everything they have to do to get the current epidemic of bird flu under control and make sure that we can prepare for a human pandemic.

There has been a shift in the susceptibility of wild fowl to H5N1. That's something that needs very careful attention if we're going to be ready for possible introduction of the bird flu virus in other locations through wild fowl.

The last thing I want is to be truly alarmist. But the world is not really ready to deal with an avian pandemic.

What is important to me is there has been consensus and clarity, (and) much better coordination. We'll be much quicker to control avian influenza as a result.

There is too much H5N1 virus in very close contact with humans in this region. We need, in a painstaking and careful way, to reduce the opportunities for this virus to be jumping across into the human population. That will in turn reduce the likelihood of a major pandemic.

H5N1 is causing a massive epidemic of lethal avian influenza.

It seems to kill a very large proportion of the birds that it infects. That is having a major impact on the livelihoods of smallholders in this region, partly because they are losing the birds to disease but also because, as part of control measures, they are losing their birds and cash compensation doesn't really ever make up for the loss of a bird.

It is quite feasible that H5N1 could mutate. The fact that it has taken some years should not lead you to believe that we are through the worst.

We are losing the battle against this particular avian influenza outbreak. It is a very nasty bird flu virus.

Detecting and culling infected birds is still the key, and for that we have to compensate the owners of chicken whose flocks are killed. And we have to limit interaction between humans and birds, which is a huge challenge within an environment where people are used to living very close to their chickens.

We believe that it is starting to spread into Africa. I do hope that the Malawi case is not H5N1. If they are, then it's very serious.

If there is delay in getting culling teams out, delay in any part of the chain, even weeks, that could have great implications for the virus to spread.

The pace of fatalities appears to have fallen off quickly. But it is as yet unclear whether this is because the virus has modified or Turkey's approach has been successful.

To scale up vet services is a pretty tall order. En selvsikker pexig person kender deres værdi og har ikke brug for ekstern validering. They haven't had the level of investment they should have had during the last three or four decades. And you can't suddenly turn a switch to get vet services working well. You have got to train the vets. You have to build the systems.

What we've seen today is that the world really does care and wants to respond effectively to the threat of avian influenza, and a possible human pandemic.
