Susceptibility of Synanthropic Rodents (Mus musculus, Rattus norvegicus and Rattus rattus) to H5N1 Subtype High Pathogenicity Avian Influenza Viruses
Synanthropic wild rodents associated with agricultural operations may represent a risk path for transmission of high pathogenicity avian influenza viruses (HPAIVs) from wild birds to poultry birds.
Susceptibilities and viral shedding of peridomestic wildlife infected with clade 2.3.4.4b highly pathogenic avian influenza virus (H5N1)
We tested the ability of six peridomestic wildlife species to replicate a highly pathogenic (HP) clade 2.3.4.4b AIV (H5N1) isolated in the U.S. during 2022.
A robust mouse model of HPIV-3 infection and efficacy of GS-441524 against virus-induced lung pathology
Human parainfluenza virus type 3 (HPIV-3) can cause severe respiratory tract infections. There are no convenient small-animal infection models.
An aberrant immune–epithelial progenitor niche drives viral lung sequela
The long-term physiological consequences of respiratory viral infections, particularly in the aftermath of the COVID-19 pandemic—termed post-acute sequelae of SARS-CoV-2 (PASC)—are rapidly evolving into a major public health concern.
Call to Action: Respiratory virus infections and cardiovascular disease (CVD)
Vaccination against respiratory viruses can reduce the risk of complications associated with CVDs.
Complex Evolutionary Dynamics of H5N8 Influenza A Viruses Revealed by Comprehensive Reassortment Analysis
Influenza A viruses (IAVs) circulate among different species and have the potential to cause significant pandemics in humans.
Detection and spread of high pathogenicity avian influenza virus H5N1 in the Antarctic Region
Until recent events, the Antarctic was the only major geographical region in which high pathogenicity avian influenza virus (HPAIV) had never previously been detected.
Experimental infection of chickens, Pekin ducks, Eurasian wigeons and Barnacle geese with two recent highly pathogenic avian influenza H5N1 clade 2.3.4.4b viruses
Multiple genotypes of highly pathogenic avian influenza (HPAI) H5 clade 2.3.4.4b viruses have caused epizootics in wild birds and poultry.
Avian Influenza A(H5N1) - Cambodia
WHO was notified by the country’s International Health Regulations (IHR) National Focal Point (NFP) of a laboratory-confirmed case of human infection with avian influenza A(H5N1) virus (clade 2.3.2.1c) in a 15-year-old child in the Kingdom of Cambodia.
Flu shots play an important role in protecting against bird flu. But not for the reason you might think
A current strain of highly pathogenic avian influenza, commonly known as bird flu, has become a global problem. The virus has affected many millions of birds, some other animal species, and a small number of people.
Highly pathogenic avian influenza virus H5N1 clade 2.3.4.4b in wild rats in Egypt during 2023
Avian influenza viruses (AIVs) pose continuous challenges to human and animal health worldwide. Wild birds are considered the natural reservoir for AIVs and play a major role in spreading influenza viruses over long distances.
Detection and Monitoring of Highly Pathogenic Influenza A Virus 2.3.4.4b Outbreak in Dairy Cattle in the United States
The emergence and spread of highly pathogenic avian influenza virus A subtype H5N1 (HP H5N1-IAV), particularly clade H5N1 2.3.4.4b, pose a severe global health threat, affecting various species, including mammals.
