Highly Pathogenic Avian Influenza (HPAI), commonly known as bird flu or pigeon aids, is said to be mounting a serious comeback, after being brutally overshadowed by the panic surrounding Swine Flu.

After being considered the mostly likely cause of human extinction for the past two years, Avian Flu has more or less been forgotten after Swine Flu became the number one reason for people to stay at home with a copy of The Daily Mail stuffed in their mouth.

Specific strains of bird flu are now said to be retreating to small areas of China, inhabiting hosts in small farming villages, and combining their different viruses to create a mega-strain, that they hope will be coined by the media as ‘The Chinese Flying Flu of Death.’

Experts have said this ultra-flu may cause people to have to take up to three weeks off work, which will please the work-shy British public who are currently enjoying the benefits of online Swine-Flu self-diagnosis.

Harry Harold, journalist for The Daily Mail told us today, “If you’re still alive after Swine Flu decimates this country in September you can definitely expect to die from the new Chinese Flying Flu of Death that we hope will hit in time for a Christmas spike in newspaper sales.”

Meanwhile flu transmission and tracking expert Dr. James Feber told us that the flu will “more than likely be the same as regular flu, but will give everyone in Britain the chance to whine about how can’t do anything except drink cider and watch The Ashes because they are more than likely to die very soon from their very Chinese Flying Flu of Death-like symptoms that they definitely have because they just looked in up on the NHS Direct website while they were simultaneously watching the cricket and getting drunk.”
