THE BIRD-FLU PRIMER:

The Guide to Being Prepared and Surviving and Avian Flu Pandemic
By Larry Altshuler, M.D.
“Measured and important, The Bird Flu Primer is a must for us all in these uncertain times.”
—USA Book News

THE BIRD-FLU PRIMER is the one-stop-shop for all things related to the avian flu. No other book explains how to prepare for, and defend against, a bird flu outbreak using traditional as well as alternative medicine. In addition, THE BIRD-FLU PRIMER includes everything Americans need to know about the
actual disease—how it affects animals and humans, how it kills, its similarities (and marked differences) to the devastating 1918 pandemic, what vaccines are currently available, which are being developed, and their chances for success. It also includes six specific scenarios that could play out, ranging from minor inconvenience to major pandemic, and how that might affect cities and towns across America. A suggested list of food items to be kept in reserve as well as an analysis of household items likely to be in short supply supplements the primer. Perhaps most importantly, this book will show you specific steps to prevent the contraction of the potentially deadly virus.

On top of all this, THE BIRD-FLU PRIMER includes expert opinion from all sides of the debate; from those who believe this is nothing but fear-mongering to experts who are absolutely certain the bird flu pandemic will wipe out millions, including discussions with the National Institute of Health and the World Health
Organization.

With reasoned guidance and medical fact, Dr. Larry Altshuler explains what to be concerned with and what to dismiss. He separates fact from fiction and addresses some very controversial issues not covered in the traditional media as he helps navigate the potentially deadly waters of pandemic. Because, unlike fear, this disease is containable and beatable, but knowledge is currently the only antidote.
