📌 Global avian influenza report highlights for 22 June - 12 July 2024 : - 11 outbreaks in poultry and 14 in non-poultry birds and mammals across 6 countries. - About 438,000 poultry birds died or were culled, mostly in Oceania and the Americas. - The number of new outbreaks notified in birds worldwide is currently relatively low, which is consistent with the known seasonality of the disease in poultry.

Updates on Highly Pathogenic Avian Influenza (HPAI) Highly Pathogenic Avian Influenza (HPAI) is a disease that is highly contagious and often deadly in poultry, caused by highly pathogenic avian influenza A (H5) and A (H7) viruses; it is also known as bird or avian flu. HPAI viruses can be transmitted by wild birds to domestic poultry and other bird and animal species. Although bird flu viruses do not normally infect humans, sporadic human infections have occurred. It is important to note that “highly pathogenic” refers to severe impact in birds, not necessarily in humans.
