DESCRIPTION:All four pandemic influenza strains in the past century have h
 ad an avian origin\, making avian influenza viruses (AIVs) a particular gl
 obal health concern. The major route of AIV transmission to humans is thro
 ugh direct or indirect exposure to live poultry. Exposure to AIVs in the g
 eneral population in Bangladesh is likely high\, given that greater than 9
 0% of poultry and poultry products are marketed through live poultry marke
 ts. In this talk\, I will present the method and results of a population-b
 ased survey conducted in 2019 measuring exposure to live poultry in urban 
 Bangladesh and uptake of prevention practices.
