Virus that changes in the body of pigs may be more infectious to humans. The human and pig together mammals that tend to have similarities. Instead, bird flu can not be directly to humans.
"Theoretically, the virus in poultry does not go to mammals such as humans. There should be a mediator and other mammals is likely to pig," he said.
In the body of pigs, the virus changes with the two patterns. The first form of adaptation patterns. "If this happens, its impact is not too dangerous because there are no changes in the structure of the virus," he said.
Pattern re-drafting a second virus. Based on this pattern, the virus can develop into a combination of swine flu, bird flu and human flu. "If the explanation gather in the U.S., there is a possibility reassortan (re-drafting)," he said.

Less than a month, Mexican H1N1 type has been infecting thousands of people. While in the past three years, the case of H5N1 was only about 300 cases in the world. "I worry if the results of re-drafting the virus spread quickly and damage to high power. Syukur far have not shown a sign to it," said Nidom.
