Chickens are seen at a chicken farm in Shanghai, China, 15 April 2013. The deadly new bird flu may pose a bigger threat to humans than the H5N1 bird virus that has killed hundreds of people worldwide, a University of Hong Kong microbiologist warned. Ho Pak-leung became the first expert to publicly express fears it could become a pandemic. The H7N9 strain emerged in humans only last month and is so far contained to the mainland. But it has already infected more people than the H5N1 virus has infected in the past 10 years. Ho said the new virus showed a higher ability to be transmitted rapidly from birds to humans and to spread geographically. And because infected birds appeared healthy, it was also harder to detect.
