countries with an infected location - some are more widespread - otehrs are
single bird incidents
China, Indonesia, Vietnam, Cambodia, South Korea[probably clean just now]
Japan[probaby clean just now] Hong Kong, Malaysia, Thailand, Laos
Greece, Turkey, Bulgaria, Germany, France, Poland, Denmark, Russia,
Azerbaijan , [probably other ex USSR states along the Black sea and Causican
sea] India, Nigeria, probably Libya, Egypt, Iran, Iraq, Pakistan, Cyprus,
Austria, Romania, Slovenia, Ukraine, Croatia, Macedonia,

Australia think they probably have it in the Northern Territories

I may well have missed some and as I say many of these are single incidents
or have passed now

Its with us for the duration now and we all just have to be prepared to cope
locally as and when it emerges.
Each part of the world and local area will have differing risk factors and
each of us have to wiegh these up and act accordingly
There is no point in major panicking - but there is need to be prepared
