Early today and alarming
discovery was published stating that researchers have found a new strain of
highly pathogenic bird flu virus, H5N8, in India. This strain has been noted to have previously killed
birds in Delhi and Gwalior zoos in October of last year. The strain has been possibly introduced by
wild birds that migrate to different parts of India from other countries during
the early fall to spring. Upon further genetic
analysis, this strain of H5N8 carries two gene recombinants from the already
isolated H5N8 viruses from the Russian Federation, Mongolia, Vietnam, China and
Eurasia. In the past, this region of
India has been mostly associated with the H5N1 species of bird flu, but the
reason for the sudden appearance of this new strain has puzzled
scientists. Based upon our current knowledge
of the flu, the spread of a mutated flu species into new regions and demographics
is not very uncommon, however, in the case of avian flu with its notorious reputation
for lethality, further containment and analysis efforts are a priority.

Happiness is all i see now I never thought that I will be cured from HERPES virus again. I have been suffering from a deadly disease (HERPES) for the past 3 years now, I had spent a lot of money going from one places to another, from churches to churches, hospitals have been my home every day residence. Constant checks up have been my hobby not until this faithful day, I was searching through the internet, I saw a testimony on how DR agaba helped someone in curing his HERPES disease, quickly I copied his email which is Dragabasolutionhome@gmail.com just to give him a test I spoke to him, he asked me to do some certain things which I did, he told me that he is going to provide the herbal cure to me, which he did, then he asked me to go for medical checkup after some days after using the herbal cure, behold I was free from the deadly disease, he only asked me to post the testimony through the whole world, faithfully am doing it now, please brothers and sisters, he is great, I owe him in return. if you are having a similar problem just email him on : Dragabasolutionhome@gmail.com or WhatApp: +2349074536486
