Viral factors in influenza pandemic risk assessment [PDF]
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.

The use of equine influenza pseudotypes for serological screening [PDF]
Standard assays used for influenza serology present certain practical issues, such as inter-laboratory variability, complex protocols and the necessity for handling certain virus strains in high biological containment facilities.

The susceptibility of magpies to a highly pathogenic avian influenza virus subtype H5N1
Korean wild magpies (Pica pica sericea) were intranasally inoculated with highly pathogenic avian influenza (A/Chicken/Korea/ES/03 virus) (H5N1), which was classified as clade 2.5. We estimated viral replication, death after infection, and histology and immunohistochemistry.

Game theory of vaccination and depopulation for managing livestock diseases and zoonoses on small-scale farms [PDF]
Livestock producers adapt their farm management to epidemiological risks in different ways, through veterinary interventions but also by modulating their farm size and the removal rate of animals.

A protective role for complement C3 protein during pandemic 2009 H1N1 and H5N1 influenza A virus infection. [PDF]
Highly pathogenic H5N1 influenza infections are associated with enhanced inflammatory and cytokine responses, severe lung damage, and an overall dysregulation of innate immunity.
