  1. The #CDC did something AWESOME! Along with the USDA & Dept of Interior, it released the first-ever

    “National One Health Framework to Address #Zoonotic Diseases & Advance Public Health Preparedness in the United States”

    - for #health threats people & animals SHARE, including #covid19, #mpox #AvianFlu, and #Ebola

    High Marks, Center for Disease Control! Earning your name this week 🏆

  2. Evaluating #epizootic & #zoonotic #threat of an #H7N9 #LPAIV #variant associated with enhanced #pathogenicity in #turkeys. J Gen Virol.: microbiologyresearch.org/conte

    H7N9 infection in turkeys can generate novel variants with increased #risk through altered pathogenicity and potential HA antigenic #escape. These findings emphasize the requirement for enhanced #surveillance and understanding of A/Anhui/1/13-lineage viruses and their risk to different species.

  4. #Zoonotic #infections by avian #influenza virus: changing global #epidemiology, #investigation, and #control, Lancet Infect Dis.: thelancet.com/journals/laninf/

    Avian influenza virus continues to pose zoonotic, #epizootic, and #pandemic #threats worldwide, as exemplified by the 2020–23 epizootics of re-emerging #H5 #genotype avian influenza viruses among #birds and #mammals and the fatal jump to humans of emerging A(#H3N8) in early 2023.

  5. #Antivirals for #PEP of #influenza: a systematic #review and network meta-analysis, MedRxIV, medrxiv.org/content/10.1101/20

    Post-exposure #prophylaxis with #zanamivir, #oseltamivir, #laninamivir or #baloxavir might reduce the #risk of symptomatic #zoonotic influenza after exposure to novel influenza A viruses associated with severe disease in infected humans.

  6. #H7N6 highly pathogenic avian #influenza in #Mozambique, 2023, doi.org/10.1080/22221751.2024.

    -- The #zoonotic #potential of this new virus should be considered. #H7N2, #H7N3, #H7N7 viruses have all been previously associated with #conjunctivitis and/or #respiratory symptoms in #humans while in 2003 in the Netherlands a fatal case occurred following an infection with H7N7.
