The WA Government is the latest to come up with a map of  H5 bird flu cases - both positive and negative.

For a while now, Deakin University has been working with Wildlife Health Australia, Birdlife Australia and the AWI (Alfred Wegener Institute) on a global map which shows the spread of the virus over the last 20-years.

You can check out the map at https://hpairisk.deakin.edu.au/
