Bird Flu - Globalization Impact

Bird Flu is a disease that just keeps on popping up. And with the huge warnings about a pandemic four years ago, fatigue is setting in. As in the fairy tale, the boy who cried wolf, there is a danger of ignoring the real danger. Globalization because now, diseases can travel so quickly. The spread of bird fluhas been blamed on the migration of wild birds, but there seems to be a bit of smuggling that has helped it spread. And when farmers are not compensated enough for sick birds, smuggling will happen. Not to mention bribery, which may have some impact on the success of culling birds to stop the spread.
