Hunt for the H5N1.

So the inevitable happened, the H5N1 strain of avian flu has been found in the UK. Quick, everybody panic!

Actually, I'm remarkably unworried by this. Attempts at developing a vaccine seem to be progressing, and the strain has still yet to make the leap to being human-human transmissible. Even when it does, the mutated strain may be relatively innocuous.

But none of this means video games companies shouldn't cash in. How long before we see a reinvented Duck Hunt for the H5N1 generation? Discuss.
