Emerging threats of HPAI H5N1 clade 2.3.4.4b in swine: knowledge gaps and the imperative for a One Health approach

Share:
"This review addresses the knowledge gaps related to HPAI H5N1 clade 2.3.4.4b infections in pigs. Assessing the risks of HPAI H5N1 in pigs and the consequences for cross-species transmission is crucial. Preventing the introduction of HPAI into pigs and minimizing spillover risks through evidence-based strategies is vital to ensuring food security, maintaining a safe food supply, sustaining animal production systems, and preventing human infections, including potential pandemics."
