Is It Safe to Eat Chicken in Asia ?


A blogger asks is it safe to eat chicken in Asia.

I assume this is due to conern over bird flu.
As far as we know if the chicken is fully cooked the virus can not be transmitted.

See Bird Flu Basics.
Please note that this post of 10/05 needs to be updated to mention that due to the migration pattern of the birds the virus has appeared in European and Middle Eastern countries as you probably know by now.

I just saw a show on this tonight. I think it was Dateline. It said the same thing that as long as it is completely fully cooked, people cannot get the avian flu virus from eating chicken.

My question would be what happens if the strain mutates and it becomes immune to heat and cooking, what then? Perhaps, it is just not a good idea to eat chicken or any type of meet in asian period. The last thing I heard was that airport security is still really tight in terms of screening people with the virus.

If the chicken is cooked properly then there is no danger of bird flue. So I do not see any thing serious about it if prepared in a good way. If you are looking for weight loss help then you can get it from Weight loss Site.

I think it's not only the problem of eating them, the most scary thing is people might get the virus they touch the live birds or their excrement...

How ironic that I found your blog just after posting on my other blog about a possible natural cure for Avian Flu! What a nice site you have! I may just have to post a link to you from my site if that would be okay.

While I have a blog here at blogger, my mainsite is located at htt://www.moonifasgarden.bravehost.com. On my home page you will find a link to "My Journal" where I posted today on the Avian Flu cure.

I would deeply appreciate your feedback froma professional to a layman. Be blessed and I hope to return soon.

If I was to lick the surface area of a newly laid hen egg in its entirety, would I remain safe from the ravages of Bird Flu?

If not, I will have to abandon a hitherto enjoyable hobby.

A wonderfully informative site. Great work.
Visually pleasing too.
Do you think the world needs to worry about bird flu? Or is the panic for nothing?

Just for fun - have a look at my blog if you have a few minutes; http://somethingfromme.blogspot.com
