Highly Pathogenic Avian Influenza A(H5N1) Virus in Wild Red Foxes, the Netherlands, 2021
Abstract
We detected infection with highly pathogenic avian influenza A(H5N1) virus clade 2.3.4.4b in 2 red fox (Vulpes vulpes) cubs found in the wild with neurologic signs in the Netherlands. The virus is related to avian influenza viruses found in wild birds in the same area.
Keywords: H5N1 subtype; Vulpes vulpes; amino acids; animals; disease outbreaks; foxes; influenza A virus; influenza in birds; respiratory infections; the Netherlands; viruses; wild; zoonoses.
