A particularly severe variant of the H5N1 strain has been spreading around the world
- Avian influenza, or bird flu, has public health officials on alert after an unprecedented spread in dairy cows in the United States this year. Four dairy workers have also tested positive in the country.
Different bird flu strains have been found in Australia and Mexico in humans, while different H5 subtypes are also present around the world in both animals and humans, in countries including China and Cambodia. The four dairy workers who have tested positive for the virus this year had mild symptoms such as conjunctivitis, or pink eye.
Mexico's government said chronic illness, rather than bird flu, was the cause of death. The person had no known exposure to animals.The WHO on June 7 said a child with H5N1 bird flu reported by Australia had traveled to Kolkata, India. Genetic sequencing showed the virus was a subtype of H5N1 and part of a strain that circulates in Southeast Asia and has been detected in previous human infections and in poultry.
