Article Abstract:

A study is conducted on the H5N1 strains of avian influenza A in Asia that were previously thought to infect only wild birds and poultry, but have now infected humans, cats, pigs, and other mammals, often with fatal results. Results have shown that H5N1 influenza A is very likely to be pandemic in the near future, for which cytotoxic Tlymphocytes may provide better protection than that offered by current vaccines.
