Cambodia’s health ministry today reported a seventh human H5N1 avian flu case for the month of June, a 36-year-old woman from ...

The H7N9 strain of bird flu was detected on a poultry farm in Mississippi. The infection of 47,654 commercial chickens was confirmed on March 13 by the World Organization for Animal Health.

In the patient's blood, CDC scientists found "a swine influenza A (H1N1) triple reassortant virus, A/Wisconsin/87/2005 H1N1," the same virus that infected the Sheboygan teenager three years earlier.

The study tested not only H5N1 but also other influenza A viruses (H5N2, H5N3), influenza D virus (IDV), and reassortant strains, ensuring that the findings apply broadly to different influenza types.

The H5N9 strain, a subtype of the influenza A virus, is considered rare. According to the U.S. National Library of Medicine, it is a reassortant virus combining elements from H5N1, ...

The last 3/4 flu pandemics (and maybe 1918 too) were reassortant viruses. "Ducks don't get very sick from many avian flu viruses and thus they are great hosts for reassortment. They still fly, eat ...
