Dr. Suresh Kuchipudi, a scientist researching bird flu in Pittsburgh, has warned that the H5N1 virus can infect a large number of mammals, including humans. Dr. Suresh Kuchipudi claimed that the virus is moving in a direction where it can cause an epidemic.
Experts say that bird flu H5n1 virus can spread an epidemic a hundred times worse than corona.
Experts have feared that bird flu infection could rapidly take the form of an epidemic and considering its high mortality rate, it could prove to be a hundred times more dangerous than the corona epidemic. This information has been given in media reports. In the report, scientists have claimed that the H5N1 virus is moving towards a serious stage and there is a danger that it could cause a global pandemic.
H5N1 virus infection can cause epidemic
Dr. Suresh Kuchipudi, a scientist researching bird flu in Pittsburgh, has warned that the H5N1 virus can infect a large number of mammals, including humans. Dr. Suresh Kuchipudi claimed that the virus is moving in a direction where it can cause an epidemic. He said that bird flu infection is still present in many parts of the world and a large number of mammals are still getting infected. Now the time has come that we should be prepared against it otherwise the situation can become serious.
This infection will be 100 times more dangerous than the Corona epidemic
Another expert has been quoted in media reports as saying that bird flu infection can prove to be more dangerous than the corona epidemic. He claimed that the bird flu epidemic could prove to be 100 times more dangerous than the Corona epidemic. The mortality rate in a bird flu pandemic will be much higher than that of corona and if it starts mutating in humans, there is a risk of it becoming more serious.
World Health Organization figures are scary
According to World Health Organization data, since 2003, out of every 100 patients infected with the H5N1 virus, 52 have died. Thus, the mortality rate of H5N1 is more than 50 percent. If we compare it with Corona virus, at the beginning of the epidemic its mortality rate was 20 percent in some places, which later came down to only 0.1 percent. So far only 887 cases of bird flu have been reported, out of which 462 have died.
