Dozens of Swans Die from Bird Flu in Stratford-Upon-Avon

[Mike]

Maybe this should be in the News section, but it is old now, so
I put it here.

During the pandemic other lethal illnesses seem to have been
sidelined!

This report happened on the 12th November 2021, there were
80 Swans on the river at Stratford, but now the Swan Rescue
Service claim that half of them have died.

This is a sad affair and will have to be treated with some urgency
I think, but I don't know how.

I wonder if the annual flu jab protects us against Bird Flu?

Mike.

An Omen?
How well is Her Majesty?

On a serious note, bird flu that has evolved to infect humans is much more serious than ordinary seasonal flu.
