1. Genetic mutations of the bird-flu virus could be very rapid givin a new breeding environment.
2. There are plenty of people in poor health in the US. Once it gains any sort of strength amoung a certain group (those with lowered immune systems) it will strengthen and mutate into more resistant forms which will more easily infect those with normal immune systems.
3. See #1 and # 2 - you don't HAVE to lay in bird shit to get it.
