In the midst of the newest killer flu, I was talking to a friend who heard from a friend that there was this horrible H5N1 flu going around. So I googled it. I also had a some fun with the H#N# thing. Here's what I found:
H1N1 - swine flu in human form
H2N1 - avian flu
H3N1 - a special swine flu just for pigs
H4N1 - bird flu found in ducks
H5N1 - bird flu that was the new killer flu a few years ago
H6N1 - poultry killer
H7N1 - turkey killer
H8N1 - duck killer
H9N1 - duck killer
I actually started in on the N2 versions of all of this and got bored of reading about bird flus.
