The discovery of swine flu in birds in Chile raises concerns about the spread of the virus, the UN warns.
Last week the H1N1 virus was found in turkeys on farms in Chile. The UN now says poultry farms elsewhere in the world could also become infected.
Scientists are worried that the virus could theoretically mix with more dangerous strains. It has previously spread from humans to pigs.

FACTS DISCLOSUIRE
Very dangerous news but sorry to say i want answer from Any one about the spread of These viruses that might be a part of international war game who are responsible i dont know but only i know that New Technologies of rDNA,Molecular can enable thaem host transfer from Swins to humans , to birds as Life is not like a manufacturing.Life or viruses are involed through time not be processed like computer chips.SO how it is possible that in few month that viruses also guest for birds too via swin, to man and now in birds.2001 bring antrax and now they are completely eridicated , Ebola virus are not active .2.Why the Only Mexican get entry swin flow, why not in LA,why china become first target of Bird flue and i think afrecan are test humans for the Biological ware fare of Ruling countries ,.In 1992 Russia admitt that 32000 scientist are working on bio warefare .The only fact is that some unknown companies or countries are going to propagate self made viruses to acheive their goals in the form to Boost the sale of particular vaccine or some Hidden agendas .And these facts would be disclosed after 10 to 15 years.
HOPES
As the virus has spread worldwide, countries have tried different methods to slow it down and pharmaceutical companies are now racing to produce a swine flu vaccine (sound familiar?). To fight the emerging outbreak, players use public health measures including setting up surveillance systems, stockpiling antivirals and vaccines, and closing schools and airports. Players also have a limited budget and are warned that your actions to control the virus cost money, so keep an eye on it. In other words, while the goal is to control the pandemic, there may not be sufficient funds and resources to accomplish those goals!
A running tally of the numbers of people infected and those who have died are displayed above the budget. Newspaper stories about the deadly virus and the global response to it — like riots breaking out worldwide — pop up to help players monitor the outbreak and plan their next moves. Messages from governments mirror the difficulties faced by international agencies like WHO that are responsible for containing worldwide epidemics. For example, when players set up costly surveillance systems, sometimes participating governments will send a message we will comply with your directions...but we must inform you that the political support for this action is low in this region. Therefore, the effectiveness of the system to control the outbreak may differ from your expectations.
I firmly believe that to prevent swine flu to spread or mix with other dangerous influenza strains, all domestic pigs must be killed and their carcases burned and buried deep. I dont know why international authorities are waiting for the disaster to happen. When they spread the wrong information regarding bird flu, authorities start to kill birds to avoid further spread. But why they are not taking the same action for pigs. Two major religions prohibit their followers to eat pig meat, and this current issue clearly justify the religious law by Islam and Jew that humans must not eat pig meat.
Prevetion specially in third-world country were pig and birth are raised in people back yard shoul be addresed for goverment district educating the citizen to have vaccination programs and hygiene in the feeding process.
