Avian Influenza in Pakistan


   Avian influenza is also called bird flu. It is a serious and
viral infection that affects not only birds rather humans and other animals as
well. According to WHO (World Health Organization), H5N1 was first discovered
in humans in nearly 1997 by Hong Kong and said it has killed more than infected
ones. Besides this, symptoms which are humans are, headache, muscle aches, and
a person can be involved in diarrhea, and respiratory difficulties. Fever over
100.4 for 33 centigrade malaises runny nose, cough, and sore throat as well. If
you feel these symptoms, then kindly visit the doctor because it is a
disease like cancer that cannot be treatable. Apart from humans, there are
several diseases present in birds but grievously, they are not being seen in,
KPK province and Islamabad. Some cases were recently reported in December 2022
and increasing uncontrollably to everything to birds, humans, and plants. 

   Furthermore, birds develop swollen heads, blue, the coloration of the comb and
wattles, lack of appetite, distress, diarrhea, dullness, and respiratory
distress, causing birds to not grow easily. In 2005 wild birds spread H5N1 to
countries in Africa, the Middle East, and Europe. Also said that birds will die
quickly by involving these diseases. These infections are increasing day by day
but unfortunately, there are no facilities to treat them.

   Finally, it is a kind request for the government to provide
facilities related to such kinds of diseases that can control them.
