Answer 1

It's out of season.  It will be back.

Bird flu is rampantly contagious among birds, but not readily contagious to humans; it takes a huge exposure to infect a human.  The concern is that it will eventually mutate to a form readily spread among humans.  It will probably happen some day.  However, modern vaccine technology should greatly mitigate the effects.  Even now it's possible to make a vaccine that would lessen the effects of bird flu, and once the actual mutation arises, a more specific and effective vaccine will be developed.  

Bird flu is dangerous, but proper measures will help a lot.
