Thanks Jose CX6SA for an interesting Bull re H5N1 arriving in Africa
courtesy of the ducks.  My understanding is that while ducks are carriers
of H5N1 they do not suffer any great distress from it.

I have seen articles on the problem say that strains of other viruses may
interbreed with H5N1 where ducks are kept with pigs.  I have never seen any
speculation of H5N1 infecting an AIDS/HIV patient who also has a human
version of the flue.  There are many HIV/AIDS patients dying in Africa.

I am 72 this Year.  Wonder if I will see the pandemic in my lifetime?  Or
even die of it?
