Little children in College Station, TX are worried about bird flu reaching their home town. Juan Laredo, 11, a student in Oakwood Intermediate School (where I work) recently wrote a research report about the topic. He found an article which stated that five children died from contracting bird flu by only collecting swan feathers. Here is an excerpt of his report.
“Five young people died from bird flu. They were trying to get the feathers from the birds to sell them. It happened in Azerbaijan on March 22, 2006. The flu has already killed 103 people.
I think in the future that the scientists are going to stop the flu before it gets to the United States.
I think that this is scary because it kills to many people, and they are just playing with birds.”
