7/19/2004: Avian Flu in Vietnam

As far as already-infected ducks go, dousing the ducks like that to disinfect from avian flu is kinda like taking an antibiotic shower for a lung infection...isn't it? Or then again...I'd imagine quite a bit gets into the duck from inhaling mist or getting it pressure-sprayed up the snout.

I don't think they're concerned with what's inside, as they aren't trying to cure the duck, they're going to kill it. What concerns them is what's on the outside that might be passed along to other critters or humans.
