Viral factors in influenza pandemic risk assessment [PDF]

, 2016
The threat of an influenza A virus pandemic stems from continual virus spillovers from reservoir species, a tiny fraction of which spark sustained transmission in humans.

Susceptibility of two species of wild terrestrial birds to infection with a highly pathogenic avian influenza virus of H5N1 subtype

Avian Pathology, 2010
The recent epidemic caused by H5N1 highly pathogenic avian influenza (HPAI) viruses has spread over many parts of Asia, Europe and Africa. Wild birds, particularly waterfowl, are considered to play a role in viral dissemination. However, detailed information on whether wild terrestrial birds act as carriers is currently unavailable.

Complete Genome Sequence of a Mixed-Subtype (H5N1 and H6N6) Avian Influenza Virus Isolated from a Duck in Hunan Province, China [PDF]

Genome Announcements, 2014
ABSTRACT We isolated an avian influenza virus, A/duck/Hunan/747/2011(mixed), which included the H5N1 and H6N6 subtypes, from a duck in China. Phylogenetic analysis indicates that the H5 hemagglutinin (HA) gene belongs to clade 2.3.2.1, the H6 HA gene belongs to the group II lineage, and the other internal genes show different recombination ...

Exploring the Antiviral Potential of Tungsten Oxide Nanoparticles Against Herpes Simplex Virus Type 1: A Promising Alternative to Acyclovir

IET Nanobiotechnology, Volume 2026, Issue 1, 2026.
Herpes simplex virus type 1 (HSV‐1) is responsible for the majority of cold sores, herpetic keratitis‐induced blindness, profound skin lesions, and encephalitis that can be fatal. Currently, acyclovir and its derivatives are the first‐line therapy for the treatment of HSV‐1 infection.

Waterfowl Move Less in Heterogeneous and Human‐Populated Landscapes, With Implications for Spread of Avian Influenza Viruses

Ecology Letters, Volume 29, Issue 1, January 2026.
We show that non‐migratory waterfowl movement distances are shorter in areas of high land cover heterogeneity and human population density, and that these movement distances are related to the spread of highly pathogenic avian influenza. These results suggest that habitat management could contribute to the spread of these viruses.

Epidemiology and Risk Modelling of Influenza A Virus Within and Between Pig Herds in Northern Lao PDR

Transboundary and Emerging Diseases, Volume 2026, Issue 1, 2026.
Animal‐origin influenza A virus (IAV) is a perennial candidate for causing the next pandemic. With high risk for interspecies IAV transmission but limited resources for surveillance, particularly in rural areas of low‐ and middle‐income countries (LMICs) such as Laos, there is a need to develop targeted, risk‐based strategies for early detection of ...

Protection and Virus Shedding of Falcons Vaccinated against Highly Pathogenic Avian Influenza A Virus (H5N1)

Emerging Infectious Diseases, 2007
Because fatal infections with highly pathogenic avian influenza A (HPAI) virus subtype H5N1 have been reported in birds of prey, we sought to determine detailed information about the birds’ susceptibility and protection after vaccination.
