The deadly strain of the bird flu, that already has claimed nearly 100 lives in Asia has migrated into parts of Europe, Austallia, Africa and the Middle East. The disease is highly infectious in birds but does not, so far spread easily between humans. The fear is it could soon mutate into a form that can. http://www.cnn.com/SPECIALS/2006/bird.flu/As many as 142 million people around the world could die if bird flu turns into a "worst case" influenza pandemic, according to a sobering new study of its possible consequences.
1) How much money can japan's economy lose if this appidemic occurs?
2)Over 1000 birds have been killed already and 100 humans have died in asia, africa and parts of europe. what do you think would happen if this flu spreads to our country? how would you feel about it?

This blog was very good. I did not realise that so many people suffered from bird flu. This blog had very nice word choise and descriptive detail such as where the flu was going.
1) They would probably lose a lot of money because of people trying to get a cure for the flu.
2) I would be very scared because from what i have heard was it can kill humans, also the vaccine is a lot of money to help u from the flu.
1. Japan's economy can lose $4.4 trillion, which can whip out Japanese economy.
2.If the flu came over to the United States i think we would have more people dieing by the bird flu, and the population will go down. It would be sad if alot of people had died because of a little bird.
1.They estimated that they could lose about 4.4 trillion dollars.
2.I would feel very weird around other people and i would be like scared of birds for the rest of my life because i dont want to catch a disease that could end my life.
1)japan would lose 4.4 trillon dollors and japan has the most populated country in the world so people are going to lose food because japan has no money to trade with
2)id be scared because i no my faimly dosent have enough money to buy a cure.

I would be scared becouse i dont wont to get killed and i dont have that much money to pay for a cure.
In the passage i learned that some of population said "They are getting sick from birds" Alot of people could lose money for selling birds that are sik and by giving the customers a sick pet is wrong.
