Human infection with avian-origin H5N6 influenza a virus after exposure to slaughtered poultry
Exposure to poultry in live poultry markets is strongly associated with human infection with avian influenza virus. To effectively prevent the transmission of viruses from live poultry to humans, people have been forced to change their living habits from

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

Reassortant Highly Pathogenic Influenza A(H5N6) Virus in Laos
In March 2014, avian influenza in poultry in Laos was caused by an emergent influenza A(H5N6) virus. Genetic analysis indicated that the virus had originated from reassortment of influenza A(H5N1) clade 2.3.2.1b, variant clade 2.3.4, and influenza A(H6N6)
