  1. #Genotypic & #phenotypic susceptibility of emerging avian #influenza A viruses to
    #NAIs & cap-dependent endonuclease #inhibitors, Antiviral Res.: sciencedirect.com/science/arti

    Frequencies of markers of resistance to antivirals were low among >20,000 avian influenza A viruses studied. #H5Nx, #H7Nx, & #H9N2 viruses were susceptible to sub-nanomolar concentrations of antivirals. NA-I222M, but not NA-S246N or NA-I222V, in H5N1 confers reduced inhibition by #oseltamivir.

  2. #Assessment of #Survival #Kinetics for Emergent Highly Pathogenic Clade 2.3.4.4 #H5Nx Avian #Influenza #Viruses, Viruses: mdpi.com/1999-4915/16/6/889

    Statistical tests of the difference between the DT values and extinction times of each clade 2.3.4.4 strain at each #temperature indicated that the majority displayed different survival kinetics from the other strains at 4 °C and 20 °C.

  3. #Seabird and sea #duck #mortalities were lower during the second breeding season in eastern #Canada following the introduction of Highly Pathogenic Avian #Influenza A #H5Nx viruses, BioRxIV, biorxiv.org/content/10.1101/20

    Mortalities in breeding season were 93% lower in 23 compared to 22 but encompassed a more diverse array of species. Mortalities in fall & winter (non-breeding season) were dominated by waterfowl, while mortalities during spring & summer (breeding season) were dominated by seabirds.

  4. ''Although #H5Nx viruses have been detected at higher rates in North #America since 2021, a #bidirectional flow of H5Nx genes of American origin viruses to #Europe has never been reported. In the future, coordinated and systematic surveillance programs for HPAI viruses need to be launched between European and North American agencies.''

  5. ''Highly pathogenic avian #influenza (HPAI) #H5Nx viruses can cause neurological #complications in many mammalian #species, including #humans.
    Neurological disease induced by #HPAI H5Nx viruses in mammals can manifest without clinical respiratory disease.
    HPAI H5Nx viruses are more #neuropathogenic than other influenza A viruses in mammals.
    Severe neurological disease in mammals is related to the neuroinvasive and neurotropic potential of HPAI H5Nx viruses.''
