A Rapid Review Contrasting the Evidence on Avian Influenza A(H5Nx) Clades 2.3.4.4b and 2.3.2.1c in Humans. [PDF]

Zoonoses Public Health
ABSTRACT Avian influenza viruses (AIV) circulate in wild and domestic bird populations, posing an on‐going risk for zoonotic transmission and virus adaptation to mammals and humans. The A(H5Nx) clades 2.3.2.1c and 2.3.4.4b currently circulating have caused sporadic infections in humans.
