The dumb things scientists do and not from wild birds lies the biggest risk of getting Bird Flu.
Who could imagine tinkering with the world's most deadly disease and forgetting to check your suit - not once, not by one person but three scientists.
Yes you read this right - a suit without a air filter, shared by three scientists who did not notice. All while working with infected ducks infected with a SouthEast Asian strain of the avian flu.
'No worries mate' in true Australian crocodile hunter style; they sent all the scientists home to see what would happen.
The three are back at work now - that is the scientists not the ducks - I understand the ducks are Ok too.
Lucky there is plenty of water between here and Australia.
