I like the way this bhai is taking precautionary measures. Something we should all follow.

Bird Flu reference on Wikipedia.

    This bhai’s hands are exposed. Therefore when this bhai picks up any food, digs his nose, or jettisons his nose load with a flick of his wrist, he risks infecting himself and others with which ever virus he carries.

    here in Islamabad people have been eating every chicken stuff. I can see jam packed SAVOUR FOODS resturant every day and night. iT seems either there is no bird flu in Punjab or people just don’t care.

    Ignorance is bliss. And here in Pakistan ignorance is supreme.

    Hmmm… after seeing the huge decrease in the chicken costs, I believe that we should have a consumer price check association. Imagine what if we stop buying chicken even when there is no bird flu, that will kick a lot of people out of business or cause them heavy loss. That way, we will be able to control price of not only chicken but every other product that we use regularly.

    Wearing these face masks doesn’t prevent us from anything. Infact if anything they increase the risk of transmission by falsly passifying us. I am posting a series on my blog about bird flu ABC.

    @jamal, Halal chicken with no blood & high temp cooking will eliminate the risk,do you have any valid scientific research findings to support this theory.Dude the risk is too high.Looking at the stakes, I don’t understand why on earth its so difficult for people to avoid chicken & eggs for a while.

    TALHA – :) earlier i have posted a link about it.

    2ndly – The AKU, NMC, SOUTH CITY, Liaquat National, PNS SHIFA, CMH Malir, are all serving Chicken diets to their patients and in their respective cafeterias. The NICH, NICVD, are in the same line whereas DMC & SMC Hostels are having enough of doctors to BOYCOTT the Chicken and restrain respective food services for serving Chicken IF it IS HIGHLY TOXIC –

    IT SURE IS NOT DANGEROUS, :) An EGG – Twice a Day Every Day :)

    Asif, knowing the condition of the artificial lake at Hill Park, I am not surprised that a dead goose was found there.
