Very concerning to see a second introduction of H5N1 I to dairy cattle. It’s been reported to be from the D1.1 genotype which is widely circulating in birds in North America. It will be critical to examine the sequences for signs of host adaptation 🦠🐄.

The USDA said four Nevada dairy herds were infected with an H5N1 bird flu strain that has circulated in wild birds, making prospects for containment in cows appear dim.

Just published—avian origin and pandemic PB1 genes from influenza A viruses influence replication and pathogenesis in an avian influenza viirus. Happy for this story to be out and thank you to my co-authors 🦠 #influenza #virology #womeninSTEM .
science.org
Past influenza pandemics contained polymerase genes from avian influenza viruses, affecting viral replication and pathogenicity.

A pair of shoddy opinion pieces proves that the paper is letting its audience down and undermining the fight to improve our knowledge of the virus.

Amazing work coming from @AmandaZihanZhu et al in the @fodorlab 🦠🧪 Congrats on this incredible accomplishment of recreating influenza virus genome replication in a test tube! 👏🏻👏🏻.
Using virion vRNPs, together with purified proteins, we have, for the first time, recreated the switch from influenza virus transcription to replication, AND a full cycle of genome replication inside a test tube🧪@AmandaZihanZhu @haitian_fan @PLOSBiology.➡️
