There is something to be said for exploring the origins of 'old' diseases as a way of understanding the new. Certainly, Spanish 'flu , a disease that killed thousands of fit people after the first world war has parallels with Bird 'flu but I must admit to being somewhat concerned about the reports that a US laboratory hopes to recreate the agent (http://www.independent.co.uk/news/science/american-scientists-controversially-recreate-deadly-spanish-flu-virus-9529707.html). You never really know where these things will go,
