A man has become the first person in the UK to contract bird flu, it was confirmed yesterday.
Alan Gosling, 79, who kept ducks in his home, contracted avian flu after a local flock of 160 came up positive and were culled last week.
The news follows a string of outbreaks of avian influenza among the bird population across the UK.
Measures have been put in place to slow the spread of the virus amid similar outbreaks across Europe and Asia.
Here is what we know about the virus in Scotland and elsewhere so far.
Avian flu, which is commonly known as bird flu, is a type of influenza that spreads among the bird population.
There have been a ‘large number’ of outbreaks and incidents of avian influenza in birds in the UK.
Due to the outbreaks of the H5N1 strain, a significant number of birds have been culled in the UK in a bid to protect the avian population.
Similar outbreaks have also been reported across Asia and Europe between October and the end of December.
Avian influenza generally flares up in the autumn when the infection is spread by migrating wild birds.
