Thank-you for this article! I know many people who will start freaking out about how they're "gonna die!," if they're anywhere in the vicinity (100 square miles and have knowledge of it) of a sick bird.
Use normal precautions when working daily with birds like chickens and turkeys. Otherwise this is a minor issue. But a surgical mask will never stop a virus or the particles that viruses travel on, those particles are way too small. Learn which masks actually stop the water droplets that viruses travel on.
