Human Infection with Avian Influenza A(H9N2) Virus, Cambodia, February 2021 [PDF]
In February 2021, routine sentinel surveillance for influenza-like illness in Cambodia detected a human avian influenza A(H9N2) virus infection. Investigations identified no recent H9N2 virus infections in 43 close contacts.

Infection of immunocompromised patients by avian H9N2 influenza A virus
Avian influenza A (H9N2) virus is transmitted sporadically from avian species to human causing mild diseases in immunocompetent person. We report two cases of human infection in immunocompromised patients in Hong Kong between 2008 and 2009.

PA-X is an avian virulence factor in H9N2 avian influenza virus [PDF]
Influenza A viruses encode several accessory proteins that have host- and strain-specific effects on virulence and replication. The accessory protein PA-X is expressed due to a ribosomal frameshift during translation of the PA gene. Depending on the particular combination of virus strain and host species, PA-X has been described as

Epidemiology and evolutionary dynamics of H9N2 avian influenza virus in Bangladesh. [PDF]
Low pathogenicity avian influenza (LPAI) H9N2 has been enzootic in Bangladeshi poultry since 2006. H9N2 outbreaks can decrease egg production and growth and pose a risk to human health. The role of avian hosts in the persistence, evolution, and dispersion of H9N2 is poorly understood in Bangladesh.

Diversity of the H9N2 Avian Influenza Virus in Shandong Province, China. [PDF]
H9N2 avian influenza virus (AIV) is one of the main pathogens causing respiratory disease in chicken; however, differentiating this virus from infectious bronchitis virus (IBV) and newcastle disease virus (NDV) only using clinical signs is difficult.

H9N2 avian influenza virus in a Mediterranean gull [PDF]
Influenza A H9N2 is a low pathogenic virus present worldwide in domestic birds and, since the mid-1990s, it has been found to be endemic in poultry of southern China (Xu et al, 2007). Several cases of bird-to-human transmission have been reported in this area since 1999.

Genetic Evolution of H9N2 Avian Influenza Virus in Guangxi, China. [PDF]
H9N2 avian influenza virus (AIV) is widely prevalent in poultry in China. To understand the genetic characteristics and evolution of H9N2 AIVs in Guangxi, southern China, the complete genomes of H9N2 AIVs from 1999–2023 were systematically analysed. Maximum likelihood (ML) trees indicated that H9N2 AIV gene sublineage diversity contributed to genotype ...

Is H9N2 Avian Influenza Virus a Pandemic Potential? [PDF]
To the Editor: H1N1 and H3N2 influenza virus subtypes continue to cause human disease (1,2), while avian influenza A H5 and H7 subtypes spread globally among birds with limited an inefficient transmission to humans (3,4). Results from recent ferret research on the H9N2 subtype has demonstrated an increased theoretical threat to humans from the ...
