Source: Archives of Virology, AbstractIn late 2017, Malaysia reported repeated outbreaks of low-pathogenic avian influenza virus (LPAI) H9N2 infections in commercial poultry flocks. Two H9N2 viruses, A/chicken/Malaysia/Negeri Sembilan/UPM994/2018 and A/chicken/Malaysia/Johore/UPM2033/2019, which were isolated…

4 HP H7N2 avian influenza viruses were isolated in #China during 2019. H7N2 isolates were #reassortants with H7N9-derived HA genes and #H9N2-derived NA genes. H7N9-derived HA genes might be a critical virulence contributor to novel H7 avian influenza viruses.
