First it was Navapur in Maharashtra now it is in Surat district in
Gujarat  bird flu is spreading rapidly .People are really worried  and
the health officials are taking all the necessary steps to prevent its
spread .About 90,000 chickens have been culled in surat district and 20
,000 more are going to be culled in near future . it has almost become
a global out break .

Birdflue is spreading in India, but if you watch the media you will not
feel so. Indian media should take much active role in this matter. For
first few days after the outbread the coverage in news paper and
television was more. Now it is not so. So I have seen people started to
take chicken again as earlier. Media should keep this issue
highlighting continuously, otherwise more dangers are waiting ahead.

Ya I agree to you . I think that it is the policy of the government to
hush up the matter . In that way the poultry industry can be saved  a
bit . the market price of the chickens and eggs have gone up  slightly
. In one way the Government has ordered for Tamiflu and H5N1 vaccines
and in the other way the dangers of the disease is not much highlighted
. The Government 's  policy is really confusing . Just wait and watch
what happens . We as a common man can do nothing more than this .
