While the sites mentioned had H5N1, I don't see Naxcivan - site of first known wild bird deaths in the Azirbaijan/Turkey region in October 2005.

If the only test was the blood, would asymptomatic carriers have antibodies in their blood?

Does the successful wild bird AI adaptation entail antibodies, or other mechanisms (as humans do) that allow them to effectively resist so many AIs?
