sonic1988 Posted March 19, 2006 Report Share Posted March 19, 2006 I'm personally more worried about getting AIDS or something like that as opposed to bird flu. Does anyone remember that West Nile Virus? Where is it now? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jazzy Julie Posted March 19, 2006 Report Share Posted March 19, 2006 dont stop eating chicken bcoz of it. Its highly unlikey your able to catch bird flu from eating it. Out of any1 here im mostly likely to get it from working with birds lol. We've already had people coming into the vet surgery saying thier bird has bird flu. They were just normal respiratory diseases lol. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

sonic1988 Posted March 19, 2006 Report Share Posted March 19, 2006 It makes sense that you won't get it from eating it because Chicken tends to be cooked in boiling water that that kills the germs. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Turntable Posted March 19, 2006 Report Share Posted March 19, 2006 You can get it if you eat it.. But only if you eat it raw,lol Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jazzy Julie Posted March 19, 2006 Report Share Posted March 19, 2006 U can get it from any poultry. . oh here we go i went on thier site and found "On the basis of current scientific evidence, the Food Standards Agency advises that avian flu does not pose a food safety risk for UK consumers. This is because for people, the risk of catching the disease is from being in close contact with live poultry that have the disease and not through eating cooked poultry, game or eggs.

Jazzy Julie Posted March 19, 2006 Report Share Posted March 19, 2006 Certain diseases can only be passed on in certain ways. Ringworm can only be passed on by touching an infected animal or human, feline aids can only be passed on to other cats thru saliva when they bite each other, psittacosis can only be passed to other birds and humans thru the air etc etc. They've done studies and they have no evidence that u can get bird flu by ingesting it. Weather its cooked or raw. If u dont believe me thats fine, u can enjoy your salad while i eat a big tasty chicken leg. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It`s just that they said in tv that you cant get it by eating bird as long it is cooked. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Trey Posted March 21, 2006 Report Share Posted March 21, 2006 (edited) I saw on the news that bird flu could be heading over to Alaska, and maybe to Washington! I hope not. Edited March 21, 2006 by Trey Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
