“BIRD FLU VIRUS CARRIED FROM ONE COUNTRY TO ANOTHER BY WILD BIRDS”

According to the news in the Fileleftheros newspaper, Dr. Petros Karayannis said that the bird flu virus was carried from one country to another by wild birds.

Expressing that it is very difficult for bird flu to infect humans and if the virus infects one person, it is very difficult to transmit it to another person, Karayannis stated that bird flu can cause much more serious problems in humans than flu.

Answering questions about the Corona virus in his statement, Karayannis added that there is no need to worry because of the increase in cases in the Greek Cypriot side in the last few days.
