  1. {#USA, #Nevada} The Occurrence of Another Highly Pathogenic Avian #Influenza (HPAI) #Spillover from Wild #Birds into Dairy #Cattle, etidiohnew.blogspot.com/2025/0

    Analysis of hemagglutinin gene of Nevada dairy cattle viruses did not identify changes predicted to impact #infectivity or #adaptation to mammalian hosts. However, a change of #PB2 D701N commonly associated with mammalian adaptation of HPAI virus was identified in viruses sequenced from four separate dairy cattle.

''Compared to the Svalbard avian index case, #PB2 #segment of the walrus sequence contained only 2 aa #substitutions, including #E627K mutation, which is known to enhance #infectivity in #mammals. Interestingly, all avian HPAIV H5N5 from Norway, as well as the walrus sequence, have a set of 6 aa in PB2 that have been reported to favour infection of mammals [Citation11].''

    Source: Nature Communications, AbstractThe 1957 H2N2 influenza pandemic virus has disappeared from humans since 1968, while H2N2 avian influenza viruses (AIVs) are still circulating in birds. It is necessary to reveal the recurrence risk and potential cross-species infection of these AIVs from avian to mammals. We find that H2 AIVs circulating in…

    At pasteurisation temperatures, viral #infectivity was rapidly lost and became undetectable before times recommended for pasteurisation. We then showed that an #H5N1 #HPAIV in milk was effectively inactivated by a comparable treatment, even though its #genetic #material remained detectable.
