  4. CW: AU - bird flu claims sea lion

    South Australia has its first case of bird flu killing a sea lion. The state has had three confirmed cases in fur seals but this is the first sea lion to test positive.

    Some distance away on Heard Island over 13,000 baby seals have died from the flu.

    Eine Auswertung von 20 Jahren Daten ergab weltweit 607 dokumentierte #Infektionen bei 12 Katzenarten, meist mit tödlichem Verlauf.

    Viele Fälle bleiben unentdeckt, da kaum aktive Überwachung stattfindet. Forscher fordern gezieltes Monitoring, insbesondere bei Katzen in Risikoumgebungen wie #Ställen.

    #Vogelgrippe: Neue Studie legt nahe, dass Amerikaner möglicherweise an der Vogelgrippe erkrankt waren, ohne es zu wissen

    Das #H5N1-Virus hat zu einer Verringerung der Milchproduktion bei Rindern geführt und durch das Ermorden von Millionen #Hühnern die Eierpreise in die Höhe getrieben .

    „Wir sehen, dass das H5N1-Virus schlauer ist als wir alle“, sagte Dr. Beth Thompson, Staatstierärztin von South Dakota.

    Laut der am Donnerstag im Morbidity and Mortality Weekly Report veröffentlichten Studie wurden drei auf Rinder spezialisierte Tierärzte positiv getestet . Die Tierärzte gaben an, dass sie nie grippeähnliche Symptome verspürt hätten.

    Zwei Tierärzte sagten, sie hätten keinen bekannten Kontakt mit Tieren gehabt, die an Vogelgrippe erkrankt waren oder bei denen ein Verdacht auf eine Erkrankung bestand...

  19. #Cat Death Losses Due to Highly Pathogenic Avian Influenza in #SouthDakota

    Updated January 13, 2025

    "#Veterinarians and laboratory diagnosticians are fielding reports of death losses in cat populations linked to avian influenza infections.

    "Beginning in 2022, an #H5N1 subtype of highly pathogenic avian influenza (abbreviated as HPAI) virus caused death losses in domestic turkeys and chickens in South Dakota and elsewhere in the United States, an outbreak that continues. The HPAI virus causes respiratory and multiple organ failure in affected birds, typically appearing as increased numbers of dead birds in large commercial operations, as well as smaller backyard flocks. Deaths in wild birds, typically migrating waterfowl but also other bird species, have been observed at the same time, as well as spillover of the virus into mammals, such as raccoons, foxes, skunks, and other species.

    "In Spring 2024, the HPAI virus began infecting #DairyCows, causing drops in milk production and other signs of illness. Unlike infections in other species, widespread death losses have not been associated with HPAI infections in dairy cows.

    "About the same time as its emergence in dairy cows, the HPAI virus was implicated in deaths of domestic cats in the vicinity of affected farms. Most affected cats showed #neurologic signs, such as #tremors or #seizures, for a short period of time before dying.

    "Since that time, three cases of substantial death losses in groups of outdoor domestic cats in South Dakota have been described. In each of these cases, there has been no apparent link to dairy cows, other livestock, or domestic poultry."

  20. Two snowy owls who were found dead in Toronto in December now confirmed to have died of bird flu.

    We already had a teen in BC on life support with no known animal exposure.

    Can we talk about the fact that these owls were found in the most populous part of the country??

    The dead hawk was found last month, and the zoo closed its aviaries as soon as preliminary results came back positive for avian influenza, Mutlow said. About a week later, he said, further testing confirmed it was the highly pathogenic strain — #H5N1 bird flu.

  23. Structural Convergence and Water-Mediated Substrate Mimicry Enable Broad #Neuraminidase #Inhibition by #Human #Antibodies

    Source: BioRxIV, https://www.biorxiv.org/content/10.1101/2024.11.27.625426v1?rss=1

    Abstract
    Influenza has been responsible for multiple global pandemics and seasonal epidemics and claimed millions of lives. The imminent threat of a panzootic outbreak of avian influenza H5N1 virus underscores the urgent need for pandemic preparedness and effective countermeasures, including monoclonal antibodies (mAbs). Here, we characterize human mAbs that target the highly conserved catalytic site of viral neuraminidase (NA), termed NCS mAbs, and the molecular basis of their broad specificity. Cross-reactive NA-specific B cells were isolated by using stabilized NA probes of non-circulating subtypes. We found that NCS mAbs recognized multiple NAs of influenza A as well as influenza B NAs and conferred prophylactic protections in mice against H1N1, H5N1, and influenza B viruses. Cryo-electron microscopy structures of two NCS mAbs revealed that they rely on structural mimicry of sialic acid, the substrate of NA, by coordinating not only amino acid side chains but also water molecules, enabling inhibition of NA activity across multiple influenza A and B viruses, including avian influenza H5N1 clade 2.3.4.4b viruses. Our results provide a molecular basis for the broad reactivity and inhibitory activity of NCS mAbs targeting the catalytic site of NA through substrate mimicry.

  24. Avian #Influenza #H5N1 - #Cambodia, #WHO D.O.N.: who.int/emergencies/disease-ou

    On 20 August 2024, WHO was notified by country’s #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 Cambodia. This case is one of 10 human cases of influenza A(H5N1) infection reported in Cambodia in 2024. Nasopharyngeal and oropharyngeal swab specimens were collected on 17-8, and patient died on 20 August.

  25. Raw #milk is risky, but #airborne #transmission of #H5N1 from #cow’s milk is inefficient in #mammals, University of Wisconsin-Madison: news.wisc.edu/raw-milk-is-risk

    While H5N1 avian #influenza virus taken from infected cow’s milk makes #mice and #ferrets sick when dripped into their #noses, airborne transmission of the virus between ferrets — a common model for human transmission — appears to be limited.

  26. #US #FDA, Updates on Highly Pathogenic Avian #Influenza #H5N1 (HPAI), as of April 23 2024, fda.gov/food/alerts-advisories

    Based on available information, #pasteurization is likely to inactivate the virus, however the process is not expected to remove the presence of viral #particles. Therefore, some of the samples collected have indicated the presence of HPAI using quantitative polymerase chain reaction (#qPCR) testing.
