Dr. Robert Redfield suggests that bird flu “could make COVID look like a little pandemic” and that “it's not a question of if, it’s more of a question of when.”

He says, “It's going to be quite complicated” because “bird flu has, when it does enter humans, a significant mortality, probably somewhere between 25% and 50% mortality.”

“Once the virus gains the ability to attach to the human receptor and then go human to human, that's when you're going to have the pandemic. And as I said, I think it's just a matter of time.”
