Among these researches, an important approach to study bird flu is to establish a statistical transmission model, from which the general trends of epidemics can be predicted, and the effect of various control measures can be assessed [13] . We know the major factors that play an important role in the transmission of bird flu are the way the infected poultry products are transported, air temperature, the control measures (for example, culling the poultry in the infected form, introducing compulsory vaccination to enhance the resistibility of poultry in the non-infected farms forbidding live birds being sold under crowded and unsanitary conditions, etc.), migratory birds and other infected transportation vehicles (which means the vehicles carry infected poultry or bird dropping or contaminated soil, etc.).	./cache/cord-299207-lw0cv74b.txt	./txt/cord-299207-lw0cv74b.txt
