Avian influenza "bird flu"
 

There is a potential risk that HPAI subtype H5N1 might be carried along migration routes of wild water birds to densely populated areas in the south Asian subcontinent. Experts fear a flu outbreak in a tropical country like Bangladesh could spell a disaster for the public as well for the poultry sector.
