Blog Note: This is the H5N1 strain of the bird flu only. This has not yet been confirmed and if it is the Avian blue the virus will be contained to birds unless direct live and fecal contact pass the virus to a direct person.
Note: If our mission/church purchases animals for the village, I suggest cows over chickens since there has been a false alarm of bird flu causing wide spread destruction of chickens within Zambia.
