migratory birds are not a reservoir for highly pathogenic flu viruses

Yes, something many of us knew already.

But this just in, research by "flu expert" Robert Webster - who had long ago asserted wild birds like ducks would spread highly pathogenic bird flu around.
I did email him, tried to rebut this, but got little back; he seemed unconcerned that such assertions may have led to birds being killed. [and those Mai Po closures, say]
