Summary
A few days ago, Australia was the only continent in the world to have avoided the deadly H5 bird flu strain. After years spent watching this virus devastate wildlife populations and agricultural sectors from afar, everything changed on Saturday when the Government confirmed bird flu has finally arrived on our shores. In today’s deep dive, we explain why you should care, and what this actually means for our wildlife, for your food bill, and your health.
