Episode description

The Australian Centre for Disease Preparedness (ACDP) is preparing for the potential arrival of the H-5-N-1 virus. The CSIRO organisation has identified three distinct avian flu outbreaks in Australia, each caused by different strains, but has yet to confirm a single case of H5N1. The Centre which plays a crucial global role in monitoring and surveillance of avian flu has held a forum to explain what Avian Flu is and what ACDP is doing to prepare.
