Influenza epidemics are mentioned in the news almost daily, and often so is the word "deadly." Experts say it's only a matter of time before a virus mutates so that it can spread effortlessly from person to person. Fifty million people died of the Spanish flu in 1918; in this age of global travel, the next pandemic could be far worse.

The recommendations in Bird Flu: What We Need to Know may help us to reduce the risk. For example:

  • wash your hands frequently and well
  • install a shoe dip on your doorstep
  • use UV light to disinfect rooms and surfaces
