Highly Pathogenic Avian Influenza A(H5N6) in Domestic Cats, South Korea

Emerging Infectious Diseases, 2018
In December 2016, highly pathogenic avian influenza (HPAI) infection with systemic pathologic lesions was found in cats in South Korea. Genetic analyses indicated that the feline isolates were similar to HPAI H5N6 viruses isolated in chicken farms nearby. This finding highlights the need for monitoring of domestic mammals during HPAI outbreaks.

Emergence and Genetic Characteristics of H5N1, H5N6, and H5N3 Clade 2.3.4.4b High Pathogenicity Avian Influenza Viruses in South Korea During the 2023–2024 and 2024–2025 Winter Seasons

Transboundary and Emerging Diseases, Volume 2026, Issue 1, 2026.
Since 2020, clade 2.3.4.4b H5Nx high pathogenicity avian influenza viruses (HPAIVs) have consistently spread across continents, causing outbreaks worldwide. During the 2023–2024 (23/24) and 2024–2025 (24/25) winter seasons, clade 2.3.4.4b H5Nx HPAIVs caused multiple outbreaks on poultry farms and were detected in wild birds in South Korea.
