Migratory Birds as Disseminators of Avian Influenza Viruses to Egypt (2003 – 2023)
Migratory birds are considered a vessel for preserving and transmitting microbes, which contribute with great force in transporting them from one place to another over long distances in the world. This would contribute to the emergence of disease pandemics globally and the most obvious example is th...
