An idea

edit

Hello there! I had a question/suggestion. Why not add content to Avian_influenza#In_domestic_animals before starting a new article? You might run into issues with Wikipedia:Merging#Reasons_for_merger (people wanting to merge the content). Wouldn't the section I pointed to be the "parent" article/section? Anyhow, just my thought! Best wishes. Biosthmors (talk) 03:18, 16 April 2013 (UTC)Reply

Hi! Great to hear from you. I actually have a question for you. The article is going to be more about how the cats react to the Avian Influenza, but what would be a good title to make the subject more searchable to the general person. I was thinking about "Feline Avian Influenza" or "Cats with Avian Influenza". What do you think?Acorn Drains Cans (talk) 22:39, 22 April 2013 (UTC)]Reply


PEER COMMENTS :-


History- • when introducing H5N1, mention that it is influenza A virus subtype or you can say its another name. • Viet Nam spelt like Vietnam • Due to where the virus attaches to in the cat, it is one of the preferred model animals to study the effects of H5N1 in humans- this sentence is a little misleading, maybe you could reconsider e.g. cat is the preferred model animal, to study the effects of H5N1 in humans because of the similar manner the virus attaches into cats. The virus- • The main way a cat can obtain – the most common way. Studies Done With Cats- • There have also been studies looking at the T cells, specifically CD4 and CD8, in the cat once the virus has taken place. Though the mechanism is not fully known, there seems to be AN inverse relationship with the amount of T cells present and the amount of infected cells. • the capital "AN" was A on your paper, I would introduce why t cells? And then studies? E.g. T cells seem to show an inverse relationship at the sight of infection, …….studies showed the t cells appear more when the virus infects the cats…etc
