Avian Influenza
Only the influenza Type-A virus is capable of what is known as antigenic shift.
Bird and human subtypes could simultaneously converge in airway epithelial host cells and reassemble into a new, deadly strain.
Overflowing with mutated viruses, the host cells burst open and circulate the virus into the defenseless human population.
