Global review of the H5N8 avian influenza virus subtype
Orthomyxoviruses are negative-sense, RNA viruses with segmented genomes that are highly unstable due to reassortment. The highly pathogenic avian influenza (HPAI) subtype H5N8 emerged in wild birds in China.

Estimation of the Basic Reproduction Numbers of the Subtypes H5N1, H5N8, and H5N6 During the Highly Pathogenic Avian Influenza Epidemic Spread Between Farms [PDF]
It is important to understand pathogen transmissibility in a population to establish an effective disease prevention policy. The basic reproduction number (R0) is an epidemiologic parameter for understanding the characterization of disease and its ...

Multiple infections with H5N8 subtype high pathogenicity avian influenza viruses in a feral mallard. [PDF]
During the 2020-2021 winter, Eurasian countries experienced large outbreaks caused by the clade 2.3.4.4b H5N8 subtype high pathogenicity avian influenza viruses (HPAIVs) in the wild bird populations. At least seven gene constellations have been found in the causal HPAIVs. When and where the various HPAIVs emerged remains unclear.

Clade 2.3.4.4b H5N8 Subtype Avian Influenza Viruses Were Identified from the Common Crane Wintering in Yunnan Province, China. [PDF]
The seasonal migration of wild aquatic birds plays a critical role in the maintenance, transmission, and incursion of the avian influenza virus (AIV). AIV surveillance was performed during 2020–2021 in two national nature reserves with abundant wild bird resources in Yunnan, China.

Spatial and Temporal Characteristic Analysis and Risk Assessment of Global Highly Pathogenic Avian Influenza H5N8 Subtype. [PDF]
H5N8 HPAI is a highly infectious avian disease that now poses a serious threat and potential risk to poultry farming, wild birds, and public health. In this study, to investigate the seasonality and transmission directionality of global H5N8 HPAI, the spatial and temporal analysis of H5N8 HPAI was conducted using time series decomposition and ...
