Human influenza (Bird Flu) is spread from person to person mainly by droplets sneezed or coughed from an infected person into the air.

Warnings of the need to be prepared has been thrashed about in the news in recent weeks. An article online at nzheralds.co.nz covered the basic strategies to reduce the risk of spreading the virus if it hits the shores.
