'''Avian flu''' ('''H10N3''') is a highly contagious [[viral]] [[disease]] caused by influenza, with up to 100% mortality in domestic fowl. All types of birds are susceptible to the virus, but outbreaks occur most often in [[chicken]]s and [[turkey]]s. The infection may be carried by migratory wild birds, which can carry the virus but show no signs of disease. Humans are only rarely affected.
