New York, NY (PRWEB) November 9, 2005 -- Online Pharmacy Giant Prescription.MD now offers 4 influenza drugs: Amantadine, Rimantadine, Relenza and Tamiflu which help fight certain strains of H5N1 virus infections.

The bird flu is an infection caused by avian (bird) influenza (flu) viruses and was recently discovered in Columbia, South America. This flu virus occurs naturally among birds and is very contagious. It can make some domesticated birds, including chickens, ducks, and turkeys, very sick and kill them.

The H5N1 influenza virus is a deadly strain of the flu virus spread from birds to humans. Since 2004, it has killed dozens of people in Cambodia, Vietnam and Thailand, and scientists are worried that it might create a flu epidemic capable of killing millions across the world. In July Indonesia confirmed its first death from the virus, which has so far killed more than 50 people since late 2003 in Vietnam, Thailand and Cambodia. Most of these cases have been from infected poultry, collimating in the culling of poultry in the infected zones.

In the UK the public is now being urged to be vigilant and report suspicious bird deaths amid fears of a deadly strain of avian flu which is feared to be spreading across Europe. The call comes after 1,870 birds died of avian flu and the European Commission imposed a ban on the import of live poultry and feathers from Turkey.

Last Month the United Nations warned that flu vaccine stockpiles may prove useless against an outbreak of the human form of bird flu. “Current vaccines may not work against whichever mutant strain triggers the pandemic that UN officials view as inevitable”, said David Nabarro, the United Nations coordinator for avian and human influenza. “During a pandemic, it could take six months before vaccine stocks are available because drug companies can't produce an effective vaccine until the genetic makeup of the mutant strain is known.”

This is perhaps the only time since 1968, which was the last pandemic, that we are getting signs, symptoms and warnings from nature ... More and more birds are dying in different parts of the world - this is the kind of signals, and early warnings that we are referring to.” said Margaret Chan, the World Health Organization’s new director for pandemic influenza preparedness.

So how can you protect yourself and your family and prepare for the oncoming virus? You should take care to use proper hygiene when handling raw fowl, washing hands, cooking the meat thoroughly, and sanitizing the countertops.
