Thread Name: BS: Chicken from SE Asia
Subject: RE: BS: Chicken from SE Asia
Q-No evidence that I could find(and, due to some personal quirks, I spent the last hour or so looking into it) indicates that Avian flu is transmitted by anything other that direct contact with an infected carrier, and, as has been pointed out pretty much continuously for the last nine years, it is only highly contagious among avian creatures, which, on last check, we are not.

From my point of view, it seems an amazing waste of resources to have my dinner (or any meal) prepared and canned in Thailand and sent to me by air.
