Re: Russia - Lake Tuva 85 dead birds from Avian Influenza

Lake Uvs Nuur is the largest lake in Mongolia, is saline due to no outlet, and is home to 173 bird species. It's also home to the snow leopard (hope they don't eat dead birds).

see: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Uvs_Nuur

I wonder if it's the same old H5N1, or a modified more pathogenic strain.

Re: Russia - Mongolia border - Uvs-Nuur (lake) 85 dead birds from Avian Influenza

from post #8:

In one bird Characteristic clinical features: tilting the head and the absence of fear

This may be the version with neurological symptoms......not good. In 2006, the Russian reported neurological symptoms in birds on the northern Caspian or Black sea. They stated that strain was especially dangerous to humans.
