H5N1 bird flu is closer to gaining pandemic potential than we thought
The flu virus currently circulating in birds and dairy cows is already better at infecting people than earlier variants, and a single mutation would allow it to bind to key human receptors
Scientists identify mutation that could facilitate H5N1 'bird flu' virus infection and potential transmission in humans
Avian influenza viruses typically require several mutations to adapt and spread among humans, but what happens when just one change can increase the risk of becoming a pandemic virus? A recent study reveals that a single mutation in the H5N1 'bird flu' virus that has recently infected dairy cows in the U.
Just one mutation can make H5N1 bird flu a threat to humans, California researchers say
California researchers say the world may be just one genetic tweak away from human-to-human transmission of the H5N1 bird flu virus — a worrisome mutation that could open the door to widespread human infections and possibly even a pandemic, according to some experts.
Bird Flu Mutation Could Trigger Pandemic in Humans
A single mutation in the virus currently infecting poultry and dairy farms across the U.S. could help the it spread among humans.
Single mutation in H5N1 bird flu virus may make it more infectious to humans, study finds
Study published in Science says a single hemagglutinin mutation, similar to one seen in a Canadian case, could make H5N1 better suited to infect people.
The Bird Flu Virus Is One Mutation Away from Getting More Dangerous
That suggests that—even though the bird flu virus isn’t very good at infecting humans—it sometimes finds a way when people are exposed to high enough concentrations of it, such as through close contact with sick animals,
Bird Flu Is Becoming a Bigger Threat
At least 58 people in the U.S. have been infected by the H5N1 bird flu virus this year, according to federal statistics. All but two of them had been around cows or chickens, two species in which H5N1 is circulating widely.
