H5N1 Water Borne?

Message Topic Search Topic Options Post Reply Create New Topic Printable Version Translate Topic

   Anybody seen anything on whether or not the virus can live in water and for how long if it can?  Only thing I've seen was about a year back and the Viet Namese thought that some of their poultry infections might have come from bird feces in water supplies, but never saw any follow up.  I've been looking at how to kill viruses in water, seems to be only a couple of ways U.V. and ozone, with U.V. being the easiest and best.
