A Review on Equine Influenza from a Human Influenza Perspective [PDF]
Viruses, 2022 Influenza A viruses (IAVs) have a main natural reservoir in wild birds. IAVs are highly contagious, continually evolve, and have a wide host range that includes various mammalian species including horses, pigs, and humans. Furthering our understanding of host-pathogen interactions and cross-species transmissions is therefore essential.

Immunity to Influenza Infection in Humans [PDF]
Cold Spring Harbor Perspectives in Medicine, 2019 This review discusses the human immune responses to influenza infection with some insights from studies using animal models, such as experimental infection of mice. Recent technological advances in the study of human immune responses have greatly added to our knowledge of the infection and immune responses, and therefore much of the focus is on recent ...
