“Given that the amount of virus needed to initiate infection of exposed ferrets via respiratory droplets is small, these findings suggest that the HPAI H7N9 virus requires only a limited amount of virus to cause lethal infection….”-Yoshihiro Kawaoka, University of Tokyo and University of Wisconsin-Madison
Scientists in China, Japan and United States are warning about a new version of H7N9 ‘bird’ flu. It’s deadly, potentially spread by humans, and doesn’t affect birds!
Studies show the new H7N9 has about a 90% kill rate in laboratory animals. Researchers at the University of Wisconsin called it “extremely unusual”. Researchers at University of Minnesota added “The work is very concerning in terms of the implications for what H7N9 might do in the days ahead in terms of human infection.” Timothy Uyeki, with the U.S. Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC), said the potential death rate from the new H7N9 is already “alarmingly high”.

China has been dealing with H7N9 outbreaks in humans since 2013. So far this year, China has reported dozens of people dying every month from H7N9! The current vaccine is based on the 2013 version of H7N9. There is no viable vaccine for the new deadlier H7N9, in desperation China’s government recently ordered testing of four new H7N9 vaccines.
