H5N1 viruses were introduced into Pennsylvania at least 68 independent times, high transmission risk within the Northeast live bird market distribution system. 9 known adaptive mutations in these samples, including one PB2 D701N in a LBM chicken 👉 www.biorxiv.org/content/10.6...
Fatal infection due to HPAI H5N5 in 2025. Virus lacked features associated with viruses that are sucessful for human infection and transmission. In ferrets, no transmission via direct contact and moderate severity. 👉 www.biorxiv.org/content/10.6...
Cohort of 1,845 lactating Holstein cows. Affected animals had milk losee of 9.6% prt 305d = $569 per cow. Higher losses in multiparous cows + higher seroconversion. 63.2% cows that were ELISA-positive had milk loss. No evidence of carryover effects 👉 www.sciencedirect.com/science/arti...

2024, two human cases w D1.1. Mutations in HA-190, 226. These mutations dont confer any α2,6 receptor binding, but do weaken α2,3 binding. Also evade human airway mucus, and a reduced susceptibility to oseltamivir and zanamivir. 👉 www.biorxiv.org/content/10.6...
