I hope we are not creating a sense of panic... because we need the public's trust to encourage governments to begin or continue pandemic preparedness efforts.

People confuse it with pandemic influenza, but they're very different diseases,

The widespread concern may be bad communication on our part. Millions of animals have been infected and very rarely have humans been infected,

I think this is exactly what countries should do. They should be transparent; they should report early.

We believe those particles are inhaled and that's how people become infected.

Bird flu is a disease among animals; it's very difficult for this virus to move from poultry into humans. Our concern is that it will change in a way that will allow it to easily move between humans, and that will trigger a pandemic.

This is progress and an important step in pandemic vaccine development.

There's an urgent need to sample and tag and track as many of these species as feasible, especially considering the narrow time frame that we've got available to do it. We need more information on the migratory routes regarding these birds.

That's because we looked at what happened in the 1918 pandemic. That caused the greatest number of deaths ever recorded from an infectious disease in a single year, by far. More than the black plague, more than any other infectious disease,

That was an extreme of an already rare event. Pandemics normally have more modest death rates.

Tens of millions of birds have been affected. But there have been only about 117 human cases in two years, ... This is a very difficult disease to move from animals to humans.

What would emerge would be a disease as deadly as avian influenza, which currently has a case fatality rate of over 50%, but that moves as easily as seasonal influenza does from person to person,

It was not unexpected, ... There will be sporadic human cases as long as the virus is circulating in animals.

The genetically modified food industry recognizes that they need to have consumer confidence in order to push ahead. The failure of GM foods in Europe was directly linked to the consumers' lack of faith in their government food regulators.

Tens of millions of birds have been affected. But there have been only about 117 human cases in two years. This is a very difficult disease to move from animals to humans.
