The first human death from bird flu in the United States has intensified calls for the government to ramp up efforts to stave off the threat of another pandemic.

Health experts around the world have for months been urging US authorities to increase surveillance and share more information about its bird flu outbreak.

The World Health Organization has maintained that bird flu's risk to the general population is low, and there is no evidence that it has been transmitted between people.
