Air sampling accurately captures circulating zoonotic viral diversity emerging from poultry live-animal markets - PubMed
Environmental surveillance has emerged as a pivotal strategy for early detection of pathogens that pose threats to humans (1) but has not been utilized for zoonotic agents. In Asia, live-bird markets (LBMs) are key human-animal interfaces for zoonotic virus transmission (2). Traditional sampling str …

Qualitative studies on farm managers perception of risk from HPAIV and implementation of biosecurity measures on UK poultry farms - PubMed
The epidemic of high pathogenicity avian influenza (HPAI) H5N1 in the United Kingdom and Northern Europe from 2021 to 2023 has dwarfed all previous incursions. This fact has driven the need to review biosecurity behaviours and perceptions of virus incursions on commercial poultry farms. This study u …

Pathogenicity of Highly Pathogenic Avian Influenza A/H5Nx Viruses in Avian and Murine Models - PubMed
The evolution and adaptation of highly pathogenic avian influenza (HPAI) viruses pose ongoing challenges for animal and public health. We investigated the pathogenic characteristics of the newly emerged H5N1/2022 and H5N8/2022 of clade 2.3.4.4b compared to the previously circulating H5N1/2016 of cla …

THE IMPORTANCE OF ONE HEALTH IN PREVENTING THE SPREAD OF HIGHLY PATHOGENIC AVIAN INFLUENZA/H5N1 - PubMed
Infections with H5N1, a type of pathogenic avian influenza (HPAI) virus, are spreading among livestock farmers, particularly among dairy cows in the United States. Until now, HPAI/H5N1 has rarely infected humans, but transmission from H5N1-infected dairy cows to dairy workers has been reported. Addi …

Pandemic risk stemming from the bovine H5N1 outbreak: an account of the knowns and unknowns - PubMed
H5N1 subtype influenza A viruses represent a long-standing pandemic concern. Owing to their global occurrence in poultry, humans are routinely exposed to these viruses, and hundreds of human cases have been documented worldwide since 2003. The relevant viral lineages are not static, however, and hav …

A new shield against bird flu - Reflections on a new vaccine - The Tufts Daily
With the COVID-19 pandemic still fresh in the minds of many U.S. citizens, concerns over the government’s ability to contain emerging health threats persist. The ongoing struggle to control the H5N1 bird flu outbreak has raised alarms, particularly as the virus has begun spreading beyond poultry to cows and even humans. While the likelihood of a pandemic remains low, if one does occur, it could be as disruptive as 2020, if not worse.

Zapnometinib counteracts different H5N strains through MEK1/2 inhibition
Zapnometinib counteracts different H5N strains through MEK1/2 inhibition
Avian influenza viruses, particularly the H5 and H7 subtypes, can cause widespread outbreaks in birds and pose a significant zoonotic risk due to their potential to mutate and develop the ability for human-to-human transmission. Researchers from the University of Muenster described the preclinical efficacy of zapnometinib, a selective MEK1/2 inhibitor, against H5N1 clade 2.3.4.4b.

Illinois continuing to monitor H5N1 in dairy cattle - Brownfield Ag News
The Illinois state veterinarian says the state is increasing its efforts to monitor dairy cattle for H5N1 avian flu. Dr. Mark Ernst tells Brownfield, “The Illinois Department of Public Health is beginning their initiation of milk testing at processors, and so that should give us an idea as to whether or not we have any […]

Donald Trump’s Health and Human Services (HHS) Secretary, Measles-dismisser, nepo-baby, bear cub-dumper, and vaccine skeptic, Robert F. Kennedy, Jr., was one of the president’s more questionable nominations. This is a significant achievement in itself when compared with other dangerously unsuitable

Bird flu: Two patients in US admitted to hospital with H5N1 as concerns over spread grow
Two people in the US have been admitted to hospital with H5N1 avian flu, adding to concerns over the growing number of infections in cattle, poultry, wildlife, and humans worldwide. As of 24 February, a woman in Wyoming remains in hospital while a man in Ohio has been discharged. Both patients had severe “respiratory and non-respiratory symptoms,” the CDC said in its weekly flu report.1 “This shows that H5N1 can be very severe, and we should not assume that it will always be mild,” Angela Rasmussen, a virologist at the Vaccine and Infectious Disease Organisation at the University of Saskatchewan, told the Guardian .2 The hospital admissions bring the total number of patients with severe cases of H5N1 in the US to four since the first was reported in …
