Might as well have a thread since it is all over the news.

Here is something disturbing from yesterday:

Two migratory geese found in Neuwied in Germany are being tested for the virus, the Times Online reported. The BBC said they had tested positive for an H5 subtype and further tests were ongoing to determine the strain. German authorities also ordered that poultry be moved indoors and given only tap water to drink to cut the risk of exposure to migratory birds, which are thought to be transporting the virus, CBS News reported today.

I think to this point it has been domestic birds in coops or exotic birds in cages? Now it could very well be in migratory birds.
