Pan-Latin Avian Influenza Vocabulary

According to infectious disease specialists, there is still a possibility that avian influenza epidemics could one day spread to human populations. Several laboratories are trying to develop and produce vaccines that can adequately protect our societies from possible epidemics. No one knows whether the virus will mutate and become transmissible from person to person, and research is underway worldwide to understand the behaviour of this virus. In this context, the Pan-Latin Terminology Network (REALITER) in collaboration with the Office québécois de la langue française (OQLF) has promoted the development of the Pan-Latin Avian Influenza Vocabulary. The Vocabulary describes 72 concepts providing equivalents in eight languages: French, Catalan, Spanish, Galician, Italian, Portuguese, Romanian and English. In the case of Spanish, the equivalents used in Mexico are also present. The definitions are given in French.
